TIDES.Network's white paper detailing an open-source generic protocol for pooling assets for mutual insurance, applied to a peer-to-peer health insurance network. v0.8 is an archived white paper, originally published in early 2018, and now made available in ebook format. ABSTRACT: Health insurance today is extremely centralized and has lost cost-effectiveness for most consumers. The distortions caused by asymmetric information, incentive misalignments, and regulatory and political overload have caused an ongoing dramatic increase in premiums, while reducing the quality of coverage. Moreover, traditional insurance companies’ incentives are diametrically opposed to those of its customers, making these problems intractable. Tides is a peer-to-peer insurance network that uses a decentralized system of functionaries to completely disintermediate the insurance “company”. In Tides’ peer-to-peer health insurance model, the “insurance company” is disintermediated and self-organizing pools of people set their own governance on all aspects of their insurance, such as coverage, limits, terms, etc., utilizing a decentralized network of actuaries, underwriters and claims processors. Thus, all critical functions in a traditional insurance “company” become disaggregated and distributed across a decentralized network. Built-in incentive structures keep all functionaries honest and efficient. Moreover, members are thoroughly incentivized to exercise judgment in consumption of healthcare resources, as any paid but unspent premiums may be distributed back to members, based on the pool contract terms. Anyone can run a peer-to-peer insurance pool as long as they also run a compliance module to keep compliant with the laws that govern mutual insurances in their jurisdiction. This model of insurance eliminates asymmetric information and incentive problems that have plagued health insurance for decades. Tides will redefine insurance to once again become an efficient societal safety net. Let’s make health insurance open, transparent, and decentralized.

Best Seller Everything for Everyone

Everything for Everyone High quality books Everything for Everyone By:Nathan Schneider Published on 2018-09-11 by Hachette UK The origins of the next radical economy is rooted in a tradition that has empowered people for centuries and is now making a comeback. A new feudalism is on the rise. While monopolistic corporations feed their spoils to the rich, more and more of us are expected to live gig to gig. But, as Nathan Schneider shows, an alternative to the robber-baron economy is hiding in plain sight; we just need to know where to look. Cooperatives are jointly owned, democratically controlled enterprises that advance the economic, social, and cultural interests of their members. They often emerge during moments of crisis not unlike our own, putting people in charge of the workplaces, credit unions, grocery stores, healthcare, and utilities they depend on. Everything for Everyone chronicles this revolution--from taxi cooperatives keeping Uber at bay, to an outspoken mayor transformi...

Best Seller The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century

The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century High quality books The Gold Standard at the Turn of the Twentieth Century By:Steven Bryan Published on 2010-08-31 by Columbia University Press By the end of the nineteenth century, the world was ready to adopt the gold standard out of concerns of national power, prestige, and anti-English competition. Yet although the gold standard allowed countries to enact a virtual single world currency, the years before World War I were not a time of unfettered liberal economics and one-world, one-market harmony. Outside of Europe, the gold standard became a tool for nationalists and protectionists primarily interested in growing domestic industry and imperial expansion. This overlooked trend, provocatively reassessed in Steven Bryan's well-documented history, contradicts our conception of the gold standard as a British-based system infused with English ideas, interests, and institutions. In countries like Japan and Argentina, where nationa...
