Project

Bridge Mutual is a platform that allows any person to create “insurance” pools for any smart contract, exchange, or service at any time. Other users can then purchase a coverage policy to “insure” themselves against hacks, rugpools, or exploits that result in a permanent loss of funds.

Bridge is fully permissionless, anyone can create a Coverage Pool for any protocol. The mission of Bridge is to become a fully DAO governed protocol in the near future.

Tokenomics

Currently, BMI is utilizing a fair launch approach, distributing tokens to liquidity providers over the next 2-3 years.

The BMI token can be used to vote on the outcomes of claims; the more tokens you have, the more influence you have on whether, and how much, the protocol will pay out to successful claimants. Voting power is also influenced by the protocol’s reputation system, everyone earns or loses reputation on the same scale.

In the near future, Bridge Mutual plans relinquish full control to its DAO structure where the BMI token will be used to vote on network changes and upgrades.

After the DAO is introduced, one of the main network upgrades that the community has been very vocal about is the token buyback and redistribution/burn of tokens (subject to community discussion).
