Overview
Imagine transforming traditional smart contract auditors into skilled underwriters. These experts already excel at spotting vulnerabilities within protocols, making them exceptionally well-suited to assess and price risk for various smart contracts. By creating staking pools through Nexus Mutual, auditor-underwriters can attract stake from investors who want to earn returns by participating in underwriting, thus establishing a new revenue stream.
Accurate underwriting is the fundamental driving force of the profitability of Nexus Mutual. The better our underwriters are at assessing technical smart contract risk, the more their syndicate and the Nexus Mutual protocol will grow.
2025 is the perfect time for this idea, because we’re seeing a maturing crypto market that demands robust risk management products. Likewise, regulatory bodies are beginning to require higher standards for risk mitigation and insurance.
Nexus Mutual provides the ideal platform to make this vision a reality. Its decentralized insurance model reduces friction for underwriters, enabling them to efficiently pool capital, price risk, and pay out claims. By leveraging Nexus Mutual, auditor-underwriters can get started today and focus only on doing what they do best – assessing and pricing risk.
