Decentralised Insurance Protocol

July 27, 2018

The concept of insurance spans a large part of our history and its earliest roots can be traced to as far back as the 3rd B.C with the Chinese merchants. To insure their cargo against potential losses during the course of transportation, they reduced their risk by spreading them across multiple boats for the fear that any of the boats failed to reach their intended destinations. The basic modern insurance structure we are familiar with today comprises of carriers and policyholders connected through middleman agents responsible for much of their sales. Despite posing figures accounting for US$3.92 trillion or 5.7% of the world’s economic output, the behemoth which is the global insurance ecosystem is still largely bogged down by an archaic “One Size Fits All” approach and has not significantly innovated itself towards greater efficiencies.
