How to earn the CHESS Airdrops

Step-by-Step Guide
Answer your boarding call and access the program from the link on the front page:
Connect the wallets that have made the above-mentioned transactions between 2022–04–13 and 2023–04–12 00:00:00 UTC and check for eligibility:
If the address connected is eligible, you will see the prompt below:
Ineligible addresses will receive the following notice:
Under the notice, you can find the countdown window to the upcoming snapshot day, the CHESS allocation amount for each week, and the amount of CHESS tokens allocation you would be able to claim post-snapshot:
The CHESS rewards users can claim = Total CHESS rewards of that week/total qualified qETHs. That is, if on week one, the total qualified qETH amount is 25000, each qETH would receive 2 CHESS airdrop ready to be claimed post snapshot day, and if the total qualified qETH amount is 25000 on week 4, each qETH would receive 8 CHESS tokens for that week.
Below are the dates that snapshots would be taken. Make sure to have qETH in your eligible wallet addresses on these days to receive CHESS rewards!

FAQs
- Where to get qETH?
Get qETH by staking ETH with Tranchess. Make sure to use the wallet addresses eligible for the event for CHESS airdrop rewards!
You can access the liquid staking page by clicking the “get more qETH” or from the front page.
- If I have my qETH in the wallet during the whole program from day 1, do I have to claim my CHESS rewards separately every week?
If you would receive CHESS rewards every week during the onboarding program, you can either claim separately on a weekly basis or claim all rewards together after the last snapshot day. But please claim your CHESS rewards before June 19, 2023, 14:00:00 UTC!
- What happens to the unclaimed CHESS rewards?
Unclaimed CHESS is considered forfeited and would be transferred back to the Tranchess Treasury.
