Crypto Insurance as an Asset Class with Danielle Wall Elliott
Ethereum DenverSat, Oct 7, 2023, 12:00 AM
The crypto industry is severely under insured, with only 1% of crypto assets being insured. By creating an on-chain insurance marketplace we can both increase the mass adoption of crypto and insurance coverage and also provide access to real world, sustainable yields on crypto, that are uncorrelated to the market. (seriously!) In this talk we will discuss the state of crypto insurance as it currently stands, whether custodians should get insurance or should the individual, why crypto needs insurance, how to access real world sustainable yields and why traditional insurance needs blockchain technology to become more transparent, trusted and efficient and close with my predictions for the future of crypto insurance as an asset class.
