The $1.2B+ Problem in DeFi

Since 2021, over $1.2 billion has been lost to depeg events across DeFi. Yet less than 0.2% of the $150B+ in yield-bearing assets are protected.

Why? Traditional insurance requires locking up capital in idle reserves – forcing investors to choose between protection and yield.

Tapir Protocol solves this.

Tapir is a decentralized depeg protection marketplace that lets you redefine risk management in DeFi:

  • ✅ Buy protection against asset depegs while keeping full base yield

  • ✅ Sell protection to earn additional premiums on top of your existing returns

  • ✅ Keep all capital productive – no idle collateral, ever

Unlike traditional insurance that uses non-productive assets (USD, ETH), Tapir uses the underlying yield-bearing asset itself for protection – making it the most capital-efficient solution in DeFi.
