Steady State Will Integrate Chainlink Keeper Network to Decentralize Automation of Insurance ClaimsBangkok, Thailand, Aug. 17, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- We’re excited to announce that Steady State—a comprehensive DeFi insurance platform—will integrate Chainlink Keeper Network on the Ethereum blockchain. We plan to leverage Chainlink Keeper Network to securely and cost-efficiently automate the quantifying of risks and paying out of insurance claims. This will result in comprehensive DeFi insurance coverage while improving the efficiency of claim operations for our users. We decided to decentralize Steady State’s insurance automation function using Chainlink Keeper Network because it is operated by the same pool of time-tested, provably reliable node operators that currently secure billions of dollars in DeFi, even during record levels of network congestion and extreme volatility. Chainlink’s proven infrastructure ensures that every insurance claim is executed on-time in a trust-minimized manner, giving users additional guarantees that it will function exactly as intended. Our platform’s core function is to fix the broken DeFi insurance industry by providing comprehensive DeFi insurance solutions, thus protecting users and securing protocols. We achieve this by employing coverage and index pools for DeFi protocols and CeFi platforms, which rely on our Risk Analysis Database (RAD) metrics, allowing for easy optimization of policies. The pools allow for liquidity provision and strategic utilization of funds for insurance against various market factors. By using automated smart contracts, we ensure our services remain transparent through the entire claims process. To achieve the provision of DeFi insurance, our platform requires the incomparable, accurate, and timely data services of the Chainlink Keeper Network. In tandem with the Risk Analysis Database, Chainlink Keepers will quantify smart contract risks to protocols and help determine claim payouts to Steady State’s policyholders. Chainlink Keeper Network is a decentralized service offered by Chainlink’s existing network of node operators that is purpose-built to manage tasks on behalf of smart contracts. Chainlink Keeper Network serves as a decentralized, hyper-reliable, and economically incentivized automation bot that wakes up smart contracts when they need to perform critical on-chain functions, which usually take place at regular time intervals (e.g., every day at the same time) or based on external events (e.g., when an asset hits a specific price). Some of the notable features of Chainlink Keeper Network include:
