„The idea that the traditional financial world partially ignores the innovations of blockchain, AI, or robotics is not only naive but also dangerous. At 1B, we are convinced that these technologies are not just here to stay but will dominate the future. We speak the language of the industry as fluently as any blockchain, AI, or robotics company. Those who fail to secure themselves today will be among the losers tomorrow.“

FAQs for Investors
General Questions About 1B Insurance
What is 1B Insurance?
1B Insurance is the first regulated insurance company in the EU specializing in insuring blockchain companies.
Why do blockchain companies need insurance?
With the MiCAR regulation (valid from December 30, 2024), crypto companies in the EU are obliged under §67 no. 1 to have prudential safeguards. According to no. 4, these can be ensured with one's own funds or with appropriate insurance. For liquidity reasons, all but a few exceptions will prefer insurance. However, no insurer has yet launched a corresponding product on the market.
What insurance products does 1B offer?
• MiCAR Insurance: Legally required insurance for crypto companies in the EU.
• Embedded Insurance: Protection for individual transactions on crypto exchanges.
• Company Insurance: Comprehensive coverage for blockchain companies worldwide.
How big is 1B’s potential market?

• 30,000–50,000 companies worldwide fall under the target group for Company Insurance.
Investment & Financing Questions

How will the capital be allocated?
The capital will be utilized in the first 18 months as follows: 40% for operations, 35% for growth, 17% for R&D, 13% for others.
