Death and DeFi: Infineo is Reimagining Life Insurance On-chain
Today on stream we had on Bob and Cole from Infineo, a new RWA platform that’s creating a REIT style token for whole life insurance. There’s a lot more to the project, they will be digitizing whole life insurance policies and setting up secondary markets… but what’s interesting about their product is that it’s truly up-only. The asset collects cash monthly and cannot fall in value. This would make it a prime target for DeFi lending, which Cole told me you could offer over 100% LTV for. The only downside is that it’s a security, it has to be traded on Provenance and there’s a 1 year lock up from when you buy it. The DeFi applications are expansive though. Even though the collateral can’t be sold… you can borrow against the asset in the first year. So maybe there is some incredible looping that can take place.
