people asked why Tranche needed to be onchain instead of just a fintech app honest answer: four reasons transparency: when money sits in a Tranche escrow, both the payer and recipient can see it themselves. not because i told them but because they can go check. anyone with internet access can verify what’s in the contract at any time, no “trust me bro” scenarios trustless: that transparency is what makes it trustless. neither party needs to trust each other or trust me. the code decides what happens. conditions met, money releases. conditions not met, it doesn’t. no human making judgment calls in the background immutable: once those rules are written into the contract, nobody can quietly change them. not me, not the payer, not the recipient. the rules are locked in. “updated terms and conditions” doesn’t exist here borderless: a freelancer in Lagos and a client in Berlin settle in USDC. same token, meaning you wouldn’t have to worry about currency conversion. the system doesn’t care where you are each one makes the others stronger. that’s why this can’t just be a fintech app
