Bittrex’s policy is placed through the world’s leading insurance broker Marsh. The exchange said it was approved for coverage after successfully demonstrating the exchange’s internal security and compliance protocols. Under the full terms, conditions, and exclusions, the policy will pay up to $ 300 million in assets in the case of external theft and internal collusion.
Bittrex’s coverage was temporarily taking the lead as Gemini created its insurance company with $ 200 million insurance for cold storage, and Coinbase had $ 255 million insurance for assets kept in hot wallets or online.
