In general, the protocol works based on central limit theorem.The frontend, integrates with Wallet Connect,the communications protocol for web3, enabling wallets and apps to securely connect and interact.It uses Cartesi to calculate the insurance premium, chainlink to get the live price of ETH/USD, walletconnect to manage the account. We use solidity smart contract as backend, react.js as front end. Together with Cartesi deployed into optimistic rollup.
