The Umbrella Coin (UMC) is a blockchain-enabled next-gen insurance platform to overcome hidden costs of traditional insurance. As the solution will be built on a decentralized, Ethereum blockchain platform, it will help to avoid the fees and management costs that create a burden on individuals and businesses. The Umbrella Coin team intends to have UMC tokens augment standard insurance policies like property/casualty (P/C) and life/health (L/H). Compare net premiums with total profits, and there is a clear opportunity for the insured to completely avoid middle-men and cease paying for coverage.
In addition, the requirement of a policyholder to pay deductible and other hidden costs imposes an even large overhead when making an insurance claim. The intention behind UMC is to make it viable for standard benefit packages and expand it to full insurance policies later on.
Umbrella Coin will protect users from all sorts of insurance monopolies by covering all out-of-pocket costs incurred regarding insurance.
UMC tokens can be used to purchase a policy. Exchange ETH for UMC for making the purchases, and if premiums are not used, 100% amount will be refunded by the end of the plan period.
Notable thing is that Umbrella Coin is not trying to replace insurance, but complementing insurance at first. They are not insurance. UMC will operate with coin holders who will be policyholders as well as insurers.
UMC will ensure that the high premiums of insurance doesn’t leave customers with excessive out-of-the-pocket costs. This is for all types of insurance – automobile, health, life, and property. The aim is to disrupt all hidden costs of carrying an insurance policy.
Users will be able to spend UMC to create a package on the blockchain network. The value will be added to the float and invested immediately.
