🔥ZERONE DEX DeFi Insurance: The Next Generation of Insurance🔥 | by Ezekiel Essien

Cryptocurrency insurance provides coverage for virtual assets lost or stolen under specific circumstances. Most policies do not cover consumers unless their cryptocurrency is involved in an exchange hack or failure of its systems.

Cryptocurrency insurance is a new type of coverage for the insurance industry, exchanges, and other crypto service providers. This type of coverage is being developed and introduced to provide financial protection for those operating and participating in the space.

Most providers offer policies to cryptocurrency exchanges or other businesses with capital invested in cryptocurrency-linked operations. Customers are only covered in the event they are affected by a failure of the company’s hardware, software, or services. For instance, if the exchange you stored your private keys on is hacked, and you lose all your funds, you might be covered if the exchange has a policy for that type of occurrence.

If you use a wallet the exchange supports—but didn’t create or maintain—to store your private keys, you may be out of luck. There isn’t any policy that protects consumers who hold their private keys themselves (yet).

Traditional insurance companies, with good reason, are hesitant to issue insurance policies to cover cryptocurrency losses. They have limited their coverage to cryptocurrency businesses with customers.

However, because centralized insurance is another target for blockchain projects, you can find many that claim to insure user’s assets. There may be a few valid decentralized insurance apps and projects out there, but for the most part, these should be avoided because they are new. Also, the only way to find out if they are scams is to be scammed. It’s better to wait and see how the industry addresses the issues.

Decentralized insurance, as it is defined in 2023, is risk sharing by network participants. One theory behind risk sharing through decentralized finance is that network participants could put up collateral that would, when combined, be enough to cover the combined risks all network participants bring.

Another is that decentralized insurance might only involve smart contracts that trigger when certain events happen. For example, if you stored your cryptocurrency keys at an exchange and they were stolen in a hack, a smart contract might automatically transfer funds into your exchange account without a claim process.

ZeroneDex DeFi insurance can refer to blockchain-based replacements of traditional policies or insurance that covers blockchain-related activity. This refers to both blockchain-based replacements of traditional insurance policies and insurance that covers blockchain-related activity.

ZERONE DeFi insurance, by the use of self-executing smart contracts, eliminates the needs for claims adjusters and even claims themselves.

More people are looking to mitigate their blockchain risk by purchasing insurance to cover their holdings. It is simply a natural application of decentralized finance.

Let’s dive deeply into the two main branches to consider in Zerone DeFi insurance. The first is blockchain-based insurance used to replace traditional insurance policies.

The second is blockchain-based insurance that mitigates the risks associated with DeFi activity. This covers people investing in cryptocurrency, for example, from things like smart contract exploits and attacks on DeFi protocols. This guide on DeFi insurance will consider both cases.

Insurance is a pooling of risk. When a potential event presents the risk of being financially punishing, individuals seek insurance to cover the risk. Insurance companies enable the individuals to pool that risk by having each one pay premiums. Each consumer’s premium is far less than they would pay if catastrophe struck. Insurance companies bet that the amount they collect from individuals will be far less than what they would have to pay for claims.

Just as the pooling of risk is done through a centralized entity, so is the payment of claims. Traditionally, a policyholder must show that a loss has occurred and a claim is justified. The insurance companies use claims adjusters to verify this and determine the payout. This claims process is a significant expense in the insurance market.

What if there were a decentralized way to handle claims? Well, parametric insurance does away with claims altogether. Instead of paying based on the damages suffered, parametric insurance pays out if parameters set in a policy are met. It’s the perfect system for decentralized smart contracts.

Parametric insurance and decentralized insurance
Let’s use farming insurance to explain how Zerone decentralized insurance works. A farmer buys drought parametric drought insurance. The policy stipulates what constitutes a drought. It could be rain gauges on the property, and/or certain declarations by a government body. Whatever the stipulation is, a parametric insurance policy pays a certain amount, also determined as the policy is written. The farmer doesn’t need to prove damages. No claims adjuster is required.

This type of insurance contract can be, and is, written without the use of blockchain technology. However, the financial industry is seeing that a smart contract can handle this type of insurance very economically. Consumer interest in this data-driven approach is growing as it promises lower premiums.

With ZERONE DeFi insurance, the policy describes the oracle or oracles – outside sources of information that confirm that the parameters for payouts have been met. The policy also describes payout amounts and other terms and is written in the form of a smart contract using blockchain technology. Since smart contracts are self-executing, the computer code is the policy and also manages the policy. In the drought scenario, you could use internet-connected rain gauges as the oracle that informs the smart contract that a drought has occurred. Once that, and any other terms, have been met, the smart contract sends the payout to the predetermined account.

With decentralized insurance products, much of the fees and friction has been removed from the process. There is no need to file claims. Payments can be made much more quickly.

1️⃣ Reduction of fraud
False claims plague the insurance industry. They result in overpayments and increased costs for claims adjusters, investigators and litigators. Decentralized insurance systems can minimize people’s ability to interject themselves into the process.

2️⃣ Automation
Smart contract technology means automated payment of claims. Also, insurance companies are using artificial intelligence algorithms to set the price and terms of insurance.

3️⃣ Speed
DeFi never sleeps. Let’s go back to our example of hurricane insurance. If you’re hit with a hurricane overnight, the weather data feed could trigger the smart contract to release compensation to the policyholder instantly. By the morning, with the distributed compensation, the policyholder could begin to fund house repairs without delay.

4️⃣ Risk assessment
Smart contract technology enables more effective ways to manage risk. When you take out a traditional policy, the insurance company will do actuarial calculations to assess your risk. With decentralized insurance systems, the algorithms do all the hard work. This often means you can set up a policy in a fraction of the time.

5️⃣ A DeFi safety net
A new type of insurance is taking the industry by storm: DeFi insurance. This is coverage for people and organizations using blockchain technology. Despite the tremendous promise of blockchain technology and all it brings, there are inherent risks attached to its applications and systems. This is why many choose to take out insurance.

Zerone Contract INS adopts a user-centric approach by democratizing access to climate assets. The platform’s focus on inclusivity empowers both large corporations and individual traders. Contract Insurance becomes a tool that levels the playing field, offering a safer and more efficient trading experience for everyone. This inclusivity aligns with the broader goals of decentralized finance – making financial services accessible to a global audience.
