Tidal Finance partners with Bifrost to provide Asset Insurance and increase Platform Security

Tidal Finance is delighted to announce its partnership with Bifrost, a Polkadot Ecosystem DeFi infrastructure protocol that aims to become an infrastructure for providing Staking liquidity, and currently offers derivative vToken and vsToken for Staking and Polkadot Lease Offering (PLO).

Through this partnership, Tidal Finance will bolster the security of Bifrost’s platform by insuring Bifrost’s vToken smart contracts and help launch its initial coverage pool. Tidal will also help cover Bifrost’s slashing losses down the road.

Integration of Tidal asset coverage features with Bifrost

Tidal Finance is High Yield DeFi Insurance Platform offering the DeFi community the ability to hedge against failure of any DeFi protocol or asset.

Bifrost is a parachain designed for staking’s liquidity. Its goal is to release liquidity for staking assets by issuing derivative assets. Since Bifrost has deployed vETH smart contract for ETH 2.0 staking liquidity, the vETH as a staking derivative has accumulated 17,800 ETH which equals to $32.04 million market cap.

Through this collaboration, Tidal Finance will adequately insure the vETH smart contract created by Bifrost. The Bifrost team will also be covered by Tidal for validator slashing losses down the road and integrate future developments into Bifrost general vToken and its yield optimization features.

“Bifrost is a really innovative platform and we’ve been keenly following their progress. We’re glad to be working with them now and offer mutual cover pools to ensure more confidence in the Bifrost platform.” said Tidal co-founder Chad Liu.

Tidal will also work closely with the Bifrost team to launch its initial coverage pool. With Bifrost’s participation, Tidal finance could offer more coverage to cover buyers and increase LP’s returns.

“Tidal as a talent insurance coverage protocol created yield optimization, which is a perfect feature that can be integrated with DeFi protocols. The different characters in Tidal’s mechanism will run like a DAO to flow premium and yield effectively” said Bifrost.
