The imperative need for crypto-insurance & the CoverCompared solution to it all!
The cryptocurrency market keeps on growing and attracting more and more people each day — it is now worth more than $3 trillion. While that number sinks in, we should mention that major global companies are also showing interest and investing in crypto-based assets. It shouldn’t be a surprise that in the near future, cryptocurrencies will be widely accepted as a mainstream payment method.
Yet, crypto wallets and exchanges are still causing doubts. Hackers constantly look for possible flaws in Smart Contracts and don’t hesitate to exploit them. More than $12 billion has been lost in DeFi applications in 2021 — $10.8 billion of which is attributed to fraud and theft, a 600% increase from 2020.
These vulnerabilities and other risks have set the ground for insurance providers to start offering coverage for crypto-based assets.
