Structured RWA credit products.
An overcollateralized, yield-ready synthetic dollar minted when users deposit stablecoins (USDC/USDT). It maintains a soft peg to the U.S. dollar, backed by real-world-asset collateral, with on-chain mint/redeem and arbitrage mechanisms.
A yield-accruing ERC-4626 vault token received when users stake chUSD. Yield is generated from Wall Street private credit strategies executed by Covenant VC, Chateau's hedge fund partner.
Tokenized private-market assets (equities, SPVs, closed-ended funds, over 1,000 pre-IPO private equities such as OpenAI, SpaceX, Anthropic, ByteDance). Each ch.asset is legally structured as a contractual debt instrument and/or participation interest in an SPV, and can be traded, staked, and used as DeFi collateral.
A Manhattan-based hedge fund partner that supplies the private-credit portfolio powering schUSD yield, targeting mispriced risk in U.S. SME / revenue-based lending across a hyperdiversified book of 100+ positions.
Protocol-embedded compliance restricting access to verified, eligible non-U.S. investors under Regulation S. Only KYC/AML-verified users may participate in primary issuances or redemptions.

Chateau blogHow Chateau Capital maps onto established TradFi structures, and where it diverges.
Private credit interval / closed-end fund (e.g., BDC or evergreen credit fund)
Chateau Capital
Both give investors exposure to a diversified private-credit portfolio managed by a professional Wall Street team, aiming for consistent income.
TradFi analogue
Chateau wraps the exposure in on-chain tokens (schUSD) that settle instantly, allow on-chain secondary exit and use as DeFi collateral, versus TradFi funds with high minimums, lock-ups and multi-month redemption windows.
Pre-IPO secondary marketplace (e.g., Forge/EquityZen)
Chateau Capital
Both offer access to late-stage private equity in companies like SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic before IPO.
TradFi analogue
Chateau tokenizes the exposure as ERC-20 tokens tradable 24/7 with $1 minimums and DeFi composability, rather than high-minimum, illiquid private placements settled off-chain.

Chateau is a DeFi/RWA protocol that tokenizes private-market assets (private credit funds, pre-IPO equities, SPVs, closed-ended funds) so they can be traded, staked, and used as collateral on-chain, giving eligible non-U.S. investors access to institutional-grade opportunities.
Users deposit USDC/USDT to mint chUSD, then stake it for schUSD, an ERC-4626 vault whose yield comes from Wall Street private-credit strategies deployed by Covenant VC, a Manhattan-based hedge fund partner.
Access is limited to verified, eligible non-U.S. investors under Regulation S, subject to KYC and AML procedures. Chateau does not offer securities to U.S. persons or to residents of jurisdictions requiring additional licensing.
Chateau initially deployed on Arbitrum and, via its December 2024 partnership, integrated with Plume Network, a modular L1 focused on real-world-asset finance, to unlock over $500M in private-market investments.
Through the Plume integration, tokenized private-market exposure is available starting at $1 USDC, lowering the barrier to assets traditionally reserved for institutions.
Yes. Zellic audited Chateau's RWA token contracts in February 2024; the initial audit surfaced 3 critical, 1 medium and 2 informational findings, all of which Chateau acknowledged and fixed.
