The Umbrella Protection Protocol is designed to enable Protection Providers to earn premium fees in return for staking funds to be paid out in the event of an exploit to Protection Seekers, who stake and pay a funding rate to earn protection in such an event.

There are two pool types in the protocol, one accessed by Protection Providers and one by Protection Seekers. The first pool type are the MetaPools, which are funded by Protection Providers and provide coverage on the second pool type, the Coverage Pools, which are accessed individually by the Protection Seekers.

Each MetaPool is made up of Coverage Pools, which provide protection on specific protocols or
contracts. An example of a MetaPool could be “Lending Protocols” while the Coverage Pools that
Seekers could access would be “Compound”, “Aave”, “Cream.” If any of those protocols experienced an exploit deemed valid by the arbiter of the MetaPool, a portion of the Provider’s stake would be used in a payout to Seekers who had staked for coverage in the affected protocol’s Coverage Pool.

InsurAce is a decentralized insurance protocol, aiming to provide reliable, robust and carefree DeFi insurance services to the DeFi users, with very low premium and sustainable investment returns. We respect all the DeFi insurance pioneers and do not consider ourselves as a competitor to the existing players, but a necessary complementary role to the immense and expansive DeFi world.

Portfolio-based product design and unique pricing model to optimize cover cost, together with sustainable investment returns, achieving ultra-low premium close to “0”.

Wallet-based accessibility (No KYC), portfolio-based product design, cross-chain protocols coverage, providing flexible and easily accessible insurance protection to end users.

The insured, insurer and investors are able to participate in the SCR (Solvency Capital Requirement) liquidity mining to earn the InsurAce Token (INSUR) by staking into the insurance and investment pool. It will drastically increase the capital pool, cover capacity, investable capital and further reduce the insurance premium.

Except SCR Mining rewards, investors will be able to gain sustainable returns from investment products offered by InsurAce.

The Yield Protocol is a standard for a token that settles based on the value of a target asset on a specified future date, and which is backed by some quantity of a collateral asset. We call these tokens “yTokens.”

You can create yTokens by depositing collateral, then sell them to effectively borrow (and short) the target asset. Buying yTokens is economically similar to lending the target asset. The effective “interest rate” received by yToken holders is determined by the discount at which yTokens currently trade, as well as the time to maturity.

yTokens can also be used as a building block for more sophisticated products. While each maturity of yTokens has a fixed expiration date, you could build a perpetual product on top of it, by implementing a pool that invests in short-term yTokens and automatically rolls them over upon expiry.

OpenOcean, the decentralized financial services development team released a new generation of products based on the intelligent full aggregation protocol: openocean.finance.

OpenOcean aggregation platform applies a deeply optimized intelligent routing algorithm and a transparent price mechanism; when an order is placed on the platform, the user will get lower slippage, less gas consumption and better prices than other platforms.

OpenOcean search engine analyzes dozens of DEX trading platforms, uses an improved D-Star algorithm to solve the initial optimal path, and adjusts and optimizes the path in real time during the subsequent trading process.

OpenOcean makes up for the impermanent losses of customers by trading mining token incentives and “slippage subsidies”.

OpenOcean tracks and analyzes DeFi trading assets, and has established a new asset evaluation system ODES (OpenOcean Defi Evaluation System) based on ecological big data. The system evaluates each token in terms of risk exposure, and only tokens with lower risk are provided for exchange.

In the future, OpenOcean will also aggregate DEX platforms based on non-ETH public chains, such as Newdex, Switcheo, Justswap, Pancake etc., and even Polkaswap.

Given the current situation of infrastructure such as Oracles and DEX in the defi ecosystem, and the demand for transaction efficiency, a majority of transactions of financial derivatives — contracts, options and other digital assets — will still be completed on CEX platform in the short term. The fragmented exchange market makes it inconvenient for users to execute cross-market trading strategies. OpenOcean will further integrate centralized trading platforms such as Binance, Coinbase, Bitfinex, and Bitmex, and achieve one-step transactions on any CEX with OpenOcean portfolio margin pool and OpenOcean wallet.

Spectral Finance is on-chain credit scoring system and novel collateral subsidization model, to solving undercollateralized loans in DeFi without doxing a user’s identity while incorporating practical recourse measures.

Spectral Finance benefits from the first-mover advantage. They are aiming to tackle on-chain credit assessments and undercollateralized lending primarily on-chain and without doxing their users.

Spectral Finance is developing a — first-of-its-kind — credit risk oracle and loan underwriter that will serve as a middleware solution for the entire DeFi ecosystem, namely the credit markets. The credit ratings generated by Spectral will determine the amount of collateral required by a user.

Spectral’s credit ratings are determined by three factors:

On-chain financial history in DeFi
Credit delegation by other users
Off-chain data points (optional)

Empowered by Spectral, borrowers will now be able to purchase under-collateralized loans from leading DeFi protocols such as Aave or Compound. By doing so, Spectral leverages the robustness and supply-side network effects of the existing DeFi credit markets to optimize capital efficiency.

The Spectral protocol will be responsible for posting the collateral needed to service the over-collateralization ratio required by most DeFi lending protocols.

Spectral will manage its own liquidity pool. Liquidity providers are motivated to provide the financial capital needed to post collateral, in return for an interest rate that corresponds with a borrowers credit risk.
