RAI Coverage is Available from Cover Protocol
We’re excited to announce that RAI holders can now buy smart contract coverage to cover any losses that might result from vulnerabilities in the RAI contracts! In order to bootstrap the coverage for RAI, we will be offering 20,000 yDAI
in rewards for people who provide coverage.
RAI Coverage Seekers
Coverage Seekers can now buy cover for a fixed period of time by going to the Cover Protocol Marketplace and choosing RAI.
Here are a couple of details about the cover:
- Expiration Date: this initial cover is valid until 4/30/2021
- The cover pays out in
DAI
(collateral) - The
CLAIM
token for RAI can be traded in this Balancer pool - The
NOCLAIM
token for RAI can be traded in this Balancer pool
Should a claimable incident occur, you will need to file a claim for RAI. If the claim is approved, you can redeem your CLAIM
tokens for 1 DAI
each. Keep in mind that an incident needs to be reported within 3 days in order for it to be eligible.
Liquidity Providers
Anyone who wants to make a financial bet on the security of the RAI contracts can earn fees by providing coverage.
You can mint CLAIM
and NOCLAIM
tokens for RAI from the Cover app. You will need to select the Expiration Date you wish to use (currently 4/30/2021) and input the amount of collateral you wish to provide.
Here’s how the CLAIM
& NOCLAIM
tokens work:
CLAIM
tokens are worth 1DAI
if an incident occursNOCLAIM
tokens are worth 1DAI
if the expiry date is reached without an incidentCLAIM
+NOCLAIM
can be redeemed together before incident or expiry is reached for 1DAI
As a Liquidity Provider you have the following options:
- If you believe RAI won’t have any claimable incidents, keep your
NOCLAIM
tokens until after expiry, sell yourCLAIM
tokens into the Balancer pool forDAI
profits. - If you believe RAI will have a claimable incident, keep your
CLAIM
tokens until the incident, then sell yourNOCLAIM
tokens into the Balancer pool forDAI
profits. - If you simply want to earn fees from Coverage Seekers, add your
CLAIM
+DAI
to the Balancer pool as a liquidity provider, you will earn trading fees (cover purchases) every time a Coverage Seeker buysCLAIM
tokens. - If you want to earn fees from Coverage Seekers and prediction market users, add both your
CLAIM
+DAI
andNOCLAIM
+DAI
to the Balancer pool as a liquidity provider, you will earn trading/coverage fees.
Shield Mining Rewards
To incentivize liquidity providers to provide coverage, Reflexer is allocating 20,000 yDAI
tokens for shield mining. The yDAI
rewards will be distributed evenly from now to expiration (4/30/2021) to coverage providers. The yDAI
rewards distribution is scheduled to start around 2pm CST on 02/18/2021.
These incentives encourage users to provide coverage for RAI and allow RAI holders to buy coverage with minimal slippage on Balancer.
