Episode 6: Smart Contract Risk, Insurance, and the Future of On-chain Coverage
In this episode, we sit down with Ralf Taner, Head of BD at Nexus Mutual, to break down everything you need to know about onchain insurance, smart contract risk, and the future of DeFi protection.
We explore how Nexus Mutual works, who buys crypto coverage, how policies are priced, and why insurance is becoming one of the most important layers in Web3. Ralf shares insights from years of working across market cycles, helping users, funds, and protocols manage risk in an increasingly complex onchain environment.
We also discuss the evolution of crypto insurance, the challenges institutions face around smart contract risk, and where derivatives and coverage markets are heading as crypto scales into a new cycle.
If you're interested in crypto security, DeFi infrastructure, risk management, or the next phase of institutional adoption, this is a must-listen.
