Do you have any advisores with an insurance background?

How do you plan on calculating the risks/price? Normal insurance appraisals can be difficult but they have many years of data and models to base things on. As this havent been done before, how do you make sure the price matches the risk?

Also how do you spot a false claim? I am guessing there will be countless attempts to exploit the system.

I really like your idea as it will help the blockchain ecosystem a lot, but my main concern is whether or not it can be run well enough to make a profit.

Yes, we do have such advisors. Our model is based on the past and real-time events. Obviously, we will run a number of surveys to find out how much people are willing to spend on the policies and what return investors expect.

Every claim can be satisfied only if the smart contract initiates it (the oracle has identified the case) and the transfer is signed by the insurance committee.

We expect to receive profits mostly from the fund management activities.

Forgot to ask - you have certified actuarial support on board then?

(Loved my former actuarial team.  Poor dears work so hard nowadays to make insurance products even remotely attractive and profitable).
