As DeFi vaults move into consumer-facing platforms, user risk tolerance changes materially.
The less familiar users are with the underlying mechanisms, the more important insurance becomes as a risk-transfer layer. 👇

Not all DeFi failures start with a hack.
Firelight will cover both technical and economic failures, including bad debt and structural impairments across collateral and loan asset relationships.
Every claim will be backed by clear triggers and verifiable on-chain evidence.

Firelight’s Vault connects to an economic security framework that brings on-chain cover to DeFi users.
Tokens deployed on Firelight earn a proportional share of generated fees, while protocols can integrate transparent, native coverage directly into their products.

DeFi has scaled, yet exploits continue to rise.
Firelight introduces an insurance-backed model where staked FXRP underwrites onchain risk through transparent premiums, claims, and rewards.

Cover markets cannot rely on black-box decisions.
When an exploit happens, users need to understand what happened, what qualifies, and who verified it.
More information coming very soon👀
