Decoupling from the risk of DeFi insurance

Network Staking is a broad based staking approach that uses one capital pool to cover all projects, instead of one capital pool per project. Cost sharing is how our network supports itself, by sharing the costs associated with paying claims and the fees the network generates from memberships among our stakers — the costs and benefits of the network are shared alike.

What is Cost Sharing?

By pairing cost sharing and network staking with proven principles from modern insurance models — we are able to create a true insurance alternative. One that offers crypto holders the same benefits as traditional insurance products with all the transparency and efficiency that blockchain technology offers.
