Over $7 billion has been lost to DeFi exploits. Less than 1% of total value locked is insured. There are three pillars of vault risk management: assessment, mitigation, and risk transfer. The industry currently only does the first two. @itsJeremiahS, @OpenCover on vault-native risk transfer and what it takes to close the protection gap.

Congrats!
Perfect is the enemy of good, except when it comes to security. The results are out: 700+ security researchers at @sherlockdefi tried to break our new Insured Vault primitive, without success. Not a single valid find. Kudos to the OpenCover team and especially @matrixtehenπŸ’ͺ
