---- Nexus Mutual to Billions | Hugh Karp
Hugh Karp is the founder of Nexus Mutual, a DeFi insurance protocol Nexus Mutual has $80M ETH covering over $240 worth of DeFi insurance, up from $8M last July. Nexus has paid out millions in insurance claims to previous DeFi hacks, and is one of the fastest-growing protocols in DeFi.
Hugh comes from the world of insurance and worked as an actuary before moving into crypto. He brings his real-world insurance knowledge to the DeFi universe through Nexus Mutual, a reconstruction of real-world insurance mechanisms, but built on Ethereum.
Nexus Mutual has over $80M in assets deposited into the Nexus contracts, up from just $8M in July 2020. This $80M is the backstop for $240M of cover purchased by Nexus customers.
Join us as we go through the history of Nexus Mutual, the NXM token, and the future road map with founder Hugh Karp!
