I wanna meet @AllezLabs LPs! Whoโs coming to London for Breakpoint next month?
I got my @Backpack on, lots of liquidity available to borrow against your stocks on the @kamino Market.
As an actuary, the distinction Iโd make here is between claims being paid and holders losing capital.
ONyc is not a stablecoin. Itโs a NAV-based asset whose value moves with underwriting performance and collateral yield.
OnReโs quoted yield already allows for expected claims through actuarial reserving. Premiums arenโt all treated as profit - thereโs a reserve for the claims expected to come through, including losses that have occurred but havenโt been reported yet.
When a fully reserved claim is paid, cash falls but so does the liability already recognised. You donโt take the same loss twice.
The risk is that claims turn out worse than those estimates. That can reduce yield and, if sufficiently severe, principal. Reserving doesnโt eliminate underwriting risk, and leverage amplifies the consequences.
So I agree users need to understand what theyโre not looping a stablecoin. But a 2% claim payout doesnโt imply a 2% ONyc NAV loss. The question is how much losses exceed whatโs already been allowed for, and how much of that excess the remaining income can absorb.
