But these new opportunities create a slew of fresh risks for Web3 companies to navigate. This guide bypasses the standard approach to managing risk, focusing on niche vulnerabilities Web3 companies face. Navigating common “slip-and-fall” scenarios isn’t what keeps blockchain leaders up at night — but we’re here to talk about what does.

Understand Real Risks

Web3 companies often share similar exposures with other industries, like employment-related risks. However, as an emerging industry, Web3 companies must navigate plenty of new risks. Our experts have combed through real Web3 exposures and identified what players in this space honestly face.

Create Innovative Solutions

Great risk management requires strategy, so kudos to you for landing on this page — you’re strategic. Here’s the thing: insurance policies often seem far too square to fit a uniquely shaped Web3 risk profile. We’re here to change that by being a part of creating insurance policies that genuinely fit your company.

Streamline Rapid Growth

Admittedly, we’re wild about rapidly scaling companies, protecting more than 25% of the venture backed ecosystem. Let’s face it, Web3 is on the fast track to profitability, and it has been coming in hot for a few years now. We support this emerging industry by launching new insurance products that just make sense for Web3, and in turn, we support your 3-2-1-launch!
