THE PROBLEM
Solana has become ground zero for meme coin degen gambling. Pump.fun alone launches 1000+ tokens daily. Most go to zero. Some 100x overnight. [feedback]
Traditional insurance won't touch crypto. Existing DeFi insurance only covers smart contract exploits (not economic attacks). There's a massive gap for high-risk token protection.
THE SOLUTION
Automated, oracle-driven insurance for high-risk Solana tokens. No trust, no manual claims, no waiting.
Pyth oracles monitor price dumps, liquidity drains, dev wallet activity
Smart contract sends SOL/USDC within minutes. No forms, no approval.
30-70% protection. Pay 2-7% premium. Keep all gains.
Yield-generating reserves. 150% over-collateralized.
Smart contracts + Pyth oracles + shared pool = trustless protection for degen plays. [feedback]
On-chain insurance protocol for high-risk Solana tokens. Get paid automatically when rugs happen. No KYC. No claims. No trust. Just smart contracts, oracles, and degens protecting degens.
HOW IT WORKS
• Enter wallet address + token contract address
• Oracle verifies your actual on-chain token holdings
• Immutable position snapshot taken at policy creation
• System checks eligibility and assigns risk score (1-10)
$ submit-position --wallet=7xK2...mPq9 --token=NEET
✓ Position verified: 25,000 NEET | Risk Score: 8/10
Premium = PositionSize × Coverage × Duration × RiskScore × 2%
Pay to deterministic address. Store policy ID + secret for claims.
$ create-policy --coverage=50% --days=14
Policy ID: TS-8472-9F3A | Premium: 224 USDC
✓ Policy token (TS-POLICY-8472) sent to wallet
• Price dump >40% in 24h
• Liquidity drain >50% in 24h
• Dev wallet dump >10% supply
$ monitor-status --policy=8472

1. Calculates actual loss from entry to trigger event
2. Applies coverage percentage and deductibles
3. Sends SOL/USDC directly to wallet (2-5 min)
4. Burns policy token (TS-POLICY-8472)

TEAM SHIELD: PROJECT-SPONSORED COVERAGE
Token Shield isn't just for individual degens. Projects can protect their holder base with bulk coverage as a trust-building and community retention tool.
$ team-apply --token=BONK --cohort=top-50
Total Coverage Value: $2,500,000
Coverage Level: 50% | Duration: 30 days
Individual Premium (no discount): $150,000
Bulk Premium (20% discount): $120,000
✓ Per holder cost: $2,400 each (paid by team)
Result: All 50 holders automatically protected. If $BONK triggers payout event, each holder receives coverage proportional to their losses. Team pays upfront, holders get peace of mind.

HOW WE PAY CLAIMS
The Critical Question: How does Token Shield ensure it can actually pay out claims when rugs happen? We use a dual-revenue model that combines premium collection with sophisticated yield strategies.
[1] PREMIUM COLLECTION (Primary Revenue)
Users pay 2-7% of coverage value as premiums based on risk level. These premiums flow directly into the insurance pool, building reserves to pay future claims.
Example: $10k coverage, 5% premium = $500
├─ $475 → Insurance Pool (available for claims)
└─ $25 → Protocol Operations (5% fee)
[2] YIELD STRATEGIES (Secondary Revenue, 35-50% Boost)
Key Insight: Insurance premiums don't get paid out immediately. They sit in the pool for days/weeks until potential claims trigger. Rather than leaving this capital idle at 0% APY, we deploy 60-80% of reserves into ultra-low-risk yield strategies.
[Phase 1: Launch - Conservative]
- → Marinade Finance (mSOL): 30% @ 6.2% APY
- → Jito Staking (JitoSOL): 15% @ 5.9% APY
- → Marginfi Lending: 15% @ 6.4% APY
Blended: 3.7% APY on entire pool (6.2% on deployed)
Kept in SOL/USDC for instant claim payouts. No withdrawal delays.
[Phase 2: Growth - Balanced]
- → Marinade + Jito + Sanctum: 50% @ ~6.3% APY
- → Marginfi + Solend: 15% @ ~5.6% APY
- → Kamino USDC-USDT: 5% @ 11.2% APY
Blended: 4.56% APY on entire pool (6.5% on deployed)
Historical claim rates <8% of pool, so 30% provides ample safety buffer.
[Phase 3: Mature - Optimized]
- → Diversified across 7 protocols
- → Max 25% per protocol (risk limit)
- → Tier 1 + Tier 2 strategies
Blended: 5.58% APY on entire pool (7.0% on deployed)
At scale, 20% liquid can handle 3-5x historical claim volume.
[3] COMBINED REVENUE MODEL
Why This Matters: Yield strategies add 35-50% additional revenue on top of premiums. This compounds pool growth and provides cushion during high-claim periods.
WITHOUT YIELD (0% APY)
WITH YIELD (Phase 2: 4.56% APY)
Premium Revenue (annual): $250k
Yield Revenue (5.58% APY): $111.6k
Total Protocol Revenue: $361.6k/year
├─ Token Staking Rewards (10%): $37.6k distributed
├─ Buyback Program (5%): $18.8k quarterly burns
└─ DAO Treasury: Remaining for operations/growth
[4] CLAIM PAYOUT MECHANICS
When a rug trigger activates, here's what happens:
System checks liquid reserves (20-40% of pool). If sufficient, payout executes immediately from liquid USDC.
→ 85% of claims paid instantly (within ~2-5 min of trigger)
For large claims exceeding liquid reserves, system auto-withdraws from yield strategies. LSTs swap instantly on DEXs, lending withdraws in <1 hour.
→ Worst case: 24h delay for massive simultaneous claims
After payout, keeper bot rebalances pool back to target allocation (e.g., 70% deployed / 30% liquid).
→ Pool automatically restores optimal state
