In the digital asset trading environment, risk management capabilities determine a platform's long-term viability. How to provide a stable and sustainable risk buffer mechanism for users of different sizes and trading rhythms in a highly volatile market is a core issue that must be addressed in the evolution of trading systems.
Based on a thorough evaluation of user participation data and the long-term performance of the contract insurance system, Websea officially launched a brand-new dual-pool mechanism for contract insurance—the insurance α (Alpha) pool and the insurance β (Beta) pool (hereinafter referred to as the α pool/β pool). The contract insurance system has been updated from the original single insurance structure to a tiered insurance system, and the overall risk management system has completed a structural evolution.
From unified structure to layered adaptation
As the number of contract insurance users continues to expand, the ways of participation are showing significant differentiation:
Some users have relatively stable transaction frequency and pursue a high degree of risk coverage and protection.
Some users trade more frequently and prioritize the efficiency of fund transfers within the insurance system.
With increasingly diversified transaction frequencies and participation methods, a single insurance mechanism serving all users simultaneously can easily lead to a mismatch in pace. The introduction of the dual insurance pool mechanism gives the system a layered adaptability for the first time, allowing users with different needs to enter a risk protection system that better suits their own pace, significantly improving the user experience.
This marks Websea's contract insurance officially transitioning from "single structured insurance" to "refined risk management."
Dual-pool parallel operation—two optimal paths under the same risk system
In a dual-pool structure:
• The alpha pool continues the original contract insurance logic, adopts a fixed round mechanism, has a higher single-node airdrop amount, and a more comprehensive risk coverage, making it suitable for users who prefer a stable pace and focus on long-term risk coverage.
• The β pool introduces a tiered airdrop round adjustment mechanism, which dynamically adjusts based on the number of valid nodes, while setting a low fee cap, making it suitable for users with high transaction frequency, rapid node growth, and a desire for more efficient insurance fund circulation.
The two pools are not substitutes, but rather two optimal structural choices that coexist: one focuses on risk coverage and the other on capital turnover efficiency. There is no superiority or inferiority between them; rather, they are two adaptable paths for different trading behaviors under the same contract insurance system.
Users are no longer forced to adapt to the system's rhythm; instead, the system begins to adapt to user differences.
Dynamic adjustment capability launched – risk management becomes "adaptive" for the first time.
The tiered round mechanism of the beta pool enables contract insurance to automatically adjust for the first time. The system dynamically matches the airdrop claim round based on changes in the number of active user nodes through daily and real-time snapshots.
The core value of this design lies in:
• The airdrop collection schedule automatically adapts when user participation changes.
• The system's continuous operation and risk tolerance have been significantly improved.
From a risk control perspective, this is a leap from a "fixed mechanism" to a "structural self-adjustment".
Actual benefits for users
This dual-pool structure is sufficient to support the long-term operation of the entire user ecosystem and can adapt to the participation needs of users with different trading types under any market environment. Its underlying logic forms a clear positive growth flywheel:
Efficiency drives increased trading activity
The β pool introduces a "dynamically adjusted airdrop collection round" mechanism, freeing users from the constraints of fixed parameters in their airdrop collection schedule. Instead, it adaptively matches the schedule based on the actual number of effective nodes, making user participation in airdrop collection rounds more flexible and improving the turnover efficiency of funds within the insurance system. This improved fund flow efficiency drives a synchronized increase in overall transaction frequency and participation activity.
Dual capital gain mechanism of premiums and commissions
The dual-pool structure effectively covers a wider range of user groups with different transaction rhythms, significantly expanding the scope of application for contract insurance.
As transaction activity increases, the amount of premiums flowing into the system and the commission income generated by the platform grow in tandem, providing a continuous and stable source of funds for the insurance pool.
At the same time, the platform injects a fixed percentage of its commission revenue into the alpha and beta pools over the long term, enabling the insurance system to obtain real and sustainable cash flow support, thereby structurally enhancing the financial stability and resilience of the risk pools.
The long-term cyclical mechanism of system self-evolution
Under the synergistic effect of the above mechanisms, the system gradually forms the following positive loop path:
Increased transaction volume → Growth in transaction fees and premiums → Continuous replenishment of insurance pool funds → Enhanced risk-bearing capacity → Improved user transaction experience and confidence → Further promotion of transaction and insurance participation.
This cyclical structure enables the contract insurance system to achieve long-term self-reinforcement and dynamic evolution through its own mechanism, ultimately building a risk management system with self-evolution capabilities.
The core positioning of contract insurance remains unchanged.
The purpose of the dual-pool upgrade is to enhance the stability and adaptability of the entire insurance system in a diverse, fast-paced, and uncertain environment. Through a mechanism of structural layering and dynamic changes in airdrop rhythm, Websea is building a risk system with long-term self-regulation capabilities, enabling contract insurance to operate stably in the long term.
Structural Evolution of Risk Systems
From a single structure to a layered system, the creation of the dual insurance pool marks a new stage in the development of Websea contract insurance. This is not merely a product refresh, but an iteration of a risk management system: it truly integrates the insurance system into the platform's long-term core capabilities. It is not just a risk management tool, but an indispensable risk protection system in the crypto market.
The dual insurance pool is a key step Websea has taken to achieve this goal.
