Buy Re Protocol reUSD (REUSD) in Canada

Re Protocol is a blockchain-based platform designed to bridge traditional reinsurance markets with decentralized finance (DeFi). Its primary goal is to enhance transparency, efficiency, and accessibility within the global reinsurance sector by tokenizing exposure to insurance contracts. The protocol achieves this by enabling direct capital allocation to reinsurance contracts through a system of smart contracts, which are designed for secure and auditable operations. The project is overseen by the Resilience Foundation. The reUSD token serves as the "stable core" of the Re Protocol. It is a principal-protected, USD-denominated token that accrues yield. ReUSD is structured to preserve capital and automatically generate daily yield, aiming for low volatility. It functions similarly to a tokenized money-market fund, combining blockchain composability with the ability to capture real-world reinsurance yields. The yield mechanism for reUSD is based on a dual-source floor. At each daily valuation, the protocol selects the higher rate between a seven-day trailing average risk-free rate plus 250 basis points, or the Ethena basis-trade yield plus 250 basis points. The chosen yield is then converted into a daily rate, and the reUSD token's price, rather than its quantity, increases daily at 00:00 UTC to reflect this accrued yield. A JSON price feed is pushed on-chain via Chainlink to ensure transparent compounding and enable DeFi integrations. For capital deployment, users mint reUSD by depositing accepted assets into the Insurance Capital Layer (ICL). A portion of these pooled assets is then converted into cash or US Treasury Bills, which are held in a Section 114 Reinsurance Trust Account. This trust provides the necessary regulatory collateral to partner reinsurers. Off-chain entities issue surplus notes to the ICL, which contractually guarantees principal protection and an interest rate matching the "Applicable APY." Custody of all trust assets is maintained by independent banks or custodians, with daily balance reports published through Chainlink oracles. Re Protocol operates across multiple blockchain networks, including Ethereum, Avalanche, Arbitrum, and Base. It integrates with various DeFi ecosystems such as Curve, Pendle, and Ethena, connecting traditional reinsurance with the broader decentralized finance landscape. It is important to note that reUSD is not available to persons in the United States and may be subject to restrictions in other jurisdictions. Learn more
