Evertas insurance products are backed by the best names in the business. We are the only cryptoasset insurance company to be coverholders with Lloyd\u2019s of London and our policies are underwritten by only the world’s most trusted and prestigious insurers, such as Arch. Evertas policies can provide coverage generally in the range of $345 million – and in many circumstances more than $400 million – and carry the highest achievable creditworthiness ratings from AM Best and Standard & Poors: A- (IX \u2013 Excellent) or A+ (XV \u2013 Superior). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a business, Evertas is backed by some of the best crypto VCs and individual investors in the industry, including Polychain Capital, SinoGlobal Capital, CMT Digital Ventures, Balaji Srinavasan, Colleen Sullivan, and Andrew Keys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Evertas was founded as BlockRe in 2017 by custodial crypto expert J. Gdanski<\/a> and insurance expert Raymond Zenkich<\/a>. The firm rebranded in 2020 with Gdanski as CEO and Zenkich as President. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

J. conceived the idea of Evertas while overseeing the creation of custodial crypto operations for a major financial institution. From his unique vantage point, J. recognized a critical lack of crypto insurance capacity. J. contacted his friend Raymond, who had himself been a pioneer in investigating cryptoasset insurance and produced the very first conference dedicated to the subject in 2016. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very few people could understand the risks and underpinnings of the infamously opaque world of crypto in general, and there were even fewer who also had an intimate knowledge of insurance – an industry founded on centuries\u2019 worth of sustainably addressing new forms of risk. J. and Raymond were practically unique in this shared expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

J. quickly realized that for a comprehensive solution to this problem to exist they would have to build it themselves. He and Raymond partnered to create the world\u2019s first cryptoasset insurance company – one exclusively dedicated to creating a suite of full-service insurance products focused solely on the unique risks endemic to the crypto industry .\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specialization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Evertas is run by cryptonatives philosophically committed to seeing crypto thrive by mitigating the risks inherent to the innovators who are building the technologies we believe in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By leveraging our underwriters’ subject matter expertise, we have created a proprietary process which leads to bespoke policies that mitigate the technical and people risks inherent to each individual project. Better underwriting means more appropriate coverage, leading to streamlined claims and faster payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
