## Summary of Proposal | ||
|
||
A lot of people will travel to Devcon SEA. This will impose a number of risks to these people: | ||
flight Delays, baggage loss, theft, and others. We will build a decentralized travel insurance for Devcon SEA participants. | ||
|
||
## Abstract | ||
We will offer a FlightDelay Insurance for DevconVI attendees. | ||
|
||
People can select their flight(s) and pay USDC 15 as a premium. | ||
Via an oracle, the risk of the flight being late is calculated, which determines the maximum amount paid out in case of a delay. | ||
|
||
After landing, the actual delay is determined by a second oracle call and in case of a delay, the payout is calculated | ||
and immediately transferred to the customers wallet. | ||
The core business process runs on our | ||
"[Generic Insurance Framework](https://github.com/etherisc/gif-next)" and does | ||
not necessarily need any off-chain components, which are, however, provided for convenience. | ||
|
||
The Dapp is available via [https://flightdelay.app](https://flightdelay.app) (in production, premiums in USDC) or | ||
via [https://flightdelay.integration.etherisc.com](https://flightdelay.integration.etherisc.com) (for testing, test-tokens available on request). | ||
|
||
We will explore if other travel related insurance products can be implemented in a similar way, e.g. baggage loss, | ||
theft, and others, depending on availability of reliable loss data. | ||
|
||
Claims are paid out from risk pools. Investors can provide liquidity for risk pools. Liquidity providers receive | ||
those premiums which are not used to pay out claims. To become a liquidity provider, investors need to | ||
stake [DIP (Decentralized Insurance Protocol) tokens](https://etherscan.io/token/0xc719d010b63e5bbf2c0551872cd5316ed26acd83). | ||
|
||
## Motivation & Rationale | ||
Attendees get peace of mind when traveling to DevConVI. This will increase their well-being | ||
and will also attract people who otherwise would abstain from participation. | ||
DevCon7 attendees will most likely be willing to use blockchain based insurance because it fits | ||
best in their DeFi engagement. Payouts can be immediate and no paperwork is needed. | ||
FlightDelay Insurance has been offered at DevConII in Shanghai and got a lot of good feedback, | ||
it was the first insurance Dapp on Ethereum - time to bring it back! | ||
|
||
## Implementation | ||
FlightDelay has been implemented using our [Generic Insurance Framework](https://github.com/etherisc/gif-next). | ||
It currently lives on Base L2 but can be deployed on any EVM chain. | ||
|
||
## Operational Requirements & Ownership | ||
Implementation and operation will be provided by Etherisc. | ||
