What Re does

Re operates the Re Protocol, an onchain reinsurance marketplace that connects stablecoin capital to fully collateralized, regulated quota-share reinsurance treaties. The platform is built around three tokenized products: reUSD, a yield-bearing stablecoin paying 6.2% APY backed by real insurance premiums; reUSDe, a higher-yield token (12.1% APY) integrated with Morpho lending markets; and $RE, a fixed-supply ERC-20 governance token launched in June 2026 that governs protocol upgrades, risk parameters, and participant admission standards. The core infrastructure spans Ethereum mainnet, Avalanche, and Arbitrum, with planned expansion to Solana (via Stargate) and Plasma, and uses Chainlink-based daily reserve attestations, MPC-controlled smart contracts, and Fireblocks institutional custody to deliver verifiable, machine-readable reinsurance exposure.

Underwriting risk sits on the regulated side of the stack: Cover Reinsurance SPC Ltd., a Cayman Islands Class B(iii) licensed exempted segregated portfolio company, underwrites quota-share treaties with more than 30 licensed U.S. insurance carriers across homeowners, commercial auto, small business commercial, workers compensation, and personal auto lines. The Cover Re portfolio totals $510.5M in bound premiums, providing coverage for approximately 700,000 to nearly 1 million U.S. households, with all reserves held in segregated Regulation 114 trusts backed by 100% cash and investment-grade assets. Re earns revenue through a combination of issuance/redemption fees, management fees on tokenized positions, structured product fees tied to reinsurance capacity, and the spread between reinsurance premium yields and token APYs paid to depositors.

Re serves two primary customer bases in parallel: DeFi yield seekers depositing USDC and USDT on app.re.xyz (live on Coinbase's Base L2) to earn yield backed by real insurance premiums, and licensed U.S. insurance carriers seeking reinsurance capacity with faster settlement and transparent reserves. The protocol is operated by Resilience Foundation Company (Cayman Islands), with affiliate entities Resilience (BVI) Ltd and Resilience Inv SPC providing administrative and custody functions, and Resilience Core Ltd (BVI) serving as the $RE token issuer. The company has raised a 2022 seed, 2024 venture, and 2025 strategic round (with a separate disclosed 2022 round of $14M from Blizzard Fund, Defy.vc, Exor, Framework Ventures, Morgan Creek Digital, SiriusPoint, Stratos, and Tribe Capital), plus a June 2026 strategic investment from Coinbase Ventures.

Revenue model

1. Insurance Premiums: Revenue generated from real-world reinsurance activity through quota-share reinsurance treaties. Insurance premiums are the primary yield source for reUSD and reUSDe token holders.
2. Structured Product Fees: Fees from structured products tied to reinsurance capacity.
3. Issuance and Redemption Fees: Fees attached to onchain capital products like reUSD and reUSDe for minting and redemption transactions.
4. Management Fees: Ongoing management fees from onchain capital products and surrounding infrastructure.

Core offering

Re operates the Re Protocol, an onchain insurance capital layer that connects stablecoin capital to fully collateralized, regulated quota-share reinsurance programs through licensed insurance structures. It issues tokenized yield-bearing stablecoins (reUSD and reUSDe) backed by real insurance premiums from U.S. carriers and underwriters, with a $RE governance token coordinating the protocol. All regulated reinsurance activities are conducted by Cover Reinsurance SPC Ltd., a Cayman Islands Class B(iii) licensed entity.

Product overview

Re operates the Re Protocol — an onchain reinsurance marketplace connecting real-world reinsurance capital with decentralized finance. The core product portfolio consists of three tokenized products: reUSD (yield-bearing stablecoin, 6.2% APY, backed by insurance premiums), reUSDe (enhanced yield-bearing token, 12.1% APY, integrated with Morpho lending market), and $RE (governance token for protocol upgrades, risk parameters, and participant standards). These are powered by the Insurance Capital Layer — a multi-EVM smart contract infrastructure (Ethereum, Avalanche, Arbitrum) with Chainlink attestations, Fireblocks custody, and Hedgey Finance token distribution. The regulated reinsurance operations run under the Cover Re brand (Cover Reinsurance SPC Ltd., Cayman Class B(iii) licensed), channeling institutional and onchain capital into fully collateralized quota-share treaties. Supporting tools include a Points Program (eligibility for $RE distribution) and public Metrics and Capital Strategy dashboards.

Emerging players

• Ondo Finance: Ondo Finance tokenizes U.S. Treasuries and other traditional yield-bearing assets for DeFi users via products like OUSG and USDY. It competes with reUSD/reUSDe for the same stablecoin-capital-seeking-real-yield audience, but backs yields with government securities rather than insurance premiums.
• Maple Finance: Maple Finance is a DeFi credit platform offering yield to stablecoin holders through institutional lending. Like Re, it is targeting sophisticated DeFi capital allocators seeking real-world yield, though its underlying assets are loans rather than reinsurance premiums.
• Centrifuge: Centrifuge tokenizes real-world assets (including insurance-related assets) onchain and connects them to DeFi liquidity through Tinlake. Its RWA tokenization architecture and focus on institutional DeFi capital overlap significantly with Re's insurance capital layer thesis.
• EigenLayer (restaking-based risk capital): EigenLayer pioneered the broader pattern of tokenizing real-world risk-bearing via restaked ETH. While it targets cryptoeconomic security rather than insurance, its model of using onchain capital to backslash real risks is conceptually adjacent and competes for similar DeFi capital allocator mindshare.
• RenRe (RenRe Protocol): RenRe is a smaller onchain reinsurance-focused protocol. As a direct competitor operating in the same niche, it serves a useful comp despite its smaller scale and less developed regulatory structure compared to Re.

Direct peers

• InsurAce: Insurace is a decentralized insurance protocol providing cover for smart-contract, stablecoin, and exchange risks. Like Re, it sits at the intersection of DeFi capital and insurance risk transfer, though it is primarily a primary insurer/distributor of cover rather than a reinsurance capital layer.
• Nexus Mutual: Nexus Mutual is a decentralized insurance/mutual protocol offering cover for smart contract and crypto-specific risks. While it focuses on crypto-native cover rather than traditional reinsurance, it is the most direct onchain risk-bearing peer and shares Re's model of tokenizing risk capital through smart contracts.
• RiskSteady (Uno Re / Reinsurance tokenization): Uno Re (now operating as RiskSteady) is one of the closest direct peers — an onchain reinsurance protocol tokenizing underwriting exposure via smart contracts. It targets similar DeFi-capital-to-reinsurance arbitrage but operates at smaller scale and lacks the Cayman Class B(iii) regulatory structure Re has built.

Broad incumbents

• Swiss Re / Munich Re (traditional reinsurers exploring blockchain): Swiss Re and Munich Re are the world's largest traditional reinsurers and have publicly explored blockchain and tokenization initiatives. They represent the incumbent competitive threat: if they successfully launch their own onchain reinsurance infrastructure, Re's protocol-level differentiation could erode.

Others

• Aave (RWA/real-yield narrative competitor): Aave's GHO stablecoin and RWA-focused initiatives (e.g., proposals around tokenized T-bills) compete for the same institutional DeFi capital seeking real-yield stablecoins. Aave does not directly compete in reinsurance but competes in the broader 'real-yield stablecoin' category where reUSD and reUSDe sit.
