Insurance in crypto

Meanwhile launched in June 2023 with $19 million in seed funding from investors including OpenAI’s CEO Sam Altman and Google’s AI-focused fund Gradient Ventures.

In March 2025, Tabit, an insurer based in Barbados, raised $40 million in BTC to back its traditional insurance policies. At the time, the company claimed to be the first property and casualty insurer to hold its entire regulatory reserve in Bitcoin.

A new market is also emerging to connect insurance brokers and underwriters with digital asset capital.

Nayms is one example — an onchain insurance marketplace that links capital providers and brokers through segregated accounts. 

Another example is Ensuro, a blockchain-based (re)insurer that lets DeFi investors diversify their portfolios by taking on real-world insurance risk.

How The ByteDance App Survived Trump And A US Ban

The post How The ByteDance App Survived Trump And A US Ban appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. WASHINGTON, DC – MARCH 13: Participants hold signs in support of TikTok outside the U.S. Capitol Building on March 13, 2024 in Washington, DC. (Photo by Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images) Getty Images From President Trump’s first ban attempt to a near-blackout earlier this year, TikTok’s five-year roller coaster ride looks like it’s finally slowing down now that Trump has unveiled a deal framework to keep the ByteDance app alive in the U.S. A look back at the saga around TikTok starting in 2020, however, shows just how close the app came to being shut out of the US – how it narrowly averted a ban and forced sale that found rare bipartisan backing in Washington. Recapping TikTok’s dramatic five-year battle When I interviewed Brendan Carr back in 2022, for example, the future FCC chairman was already certain at that point that TikTok’s days were numbered.
