Introduction of The Product :

ISM is a decentralized currency price insurance project based on Heco. By casting insurance tokens, users can take out insurance to hedge the price fluctuation of digital assets, and obtain ISM token rewards through liquidity mining.

1st: Preparation

Because Heco and Ethereum are different main networks, the parameters of Heco main network need to be configured in the wallet before using the metamask wallet. Here is a tutorial to download and configure the Heco network.

1. Metamask Plug-in Wallet in Chrome Browser

Install Metamask Plug-in Wallet

For users who have not installed metamask, please download on the official website of metamask: https://metamask.io/download.html . Download and install the metamask chrome plug-in.

2. Add Heco Main Network

After opening the metamask plug-in, click Ethereum mainnet above the plug-in to add the main network of Heco.

3. Configure Heco Main Network Information

Click and select custom RPC in networks. Configure the network parameters as shown in the figure below.

The configuration parameters are as follows:

Network Name: heco-mainnet

New RPC URL:

https://http-mainnet-node.huobichain.com

Chain ID: 128

Symbol (optional): HT

Shielding Manager URL (optional): https://scan.hecochain.com

The Heco chain will be well configured like this. All kinds of DAPP on heco can be used happily.

2ed:Liquidity Mining of Insurance Token (Claim and Unclaim Token)

Operating Instructions: What is the insurance function token? Why do we need liquidity mining?

The core of the liquidity mining of insurance token is to encourage the liquidity providers to provide higher transaction liquidity for the insured users by means of mining (obtaining ISM token reward).

Insurance tokens can be obtained by casting, and a claim token and an unclaim token can be obtained by pledging a USDT. The sum of the value of one claim token and one unclaim token is always close to the price of one USDT. Therefore, the loss of mining with insurance token is very small, and it will not cause too much loss because of the price fluctuation of the token.

Step 1: Token Casting of Claim and Unclaim:

Operating Instructions:

The user mortgages the collateral of one unit in the insurance factory to generate two Tokens: claim and unclaim. Once you return CLAIM and UNCLAIM in the insurance factory, you will get 1 unit of collateral.

The parameters of CLAIM and UNCLAIM include maturity time, guarantee token and guarantee price. For example: ISM_ETH_2021_12_31_1000_USDT_CLAIM means that the holder of claim can sell a unit of ETH at the price of 1000 USDT before December 31, 2021.

CLAIM + UNCLAIM = 1 Unit Collateral

Rights and Interests of CLAIM Holders:

You can sell one unit of guarantee token at XX USDT through CLAIM before the expiration date. (After expiration, the value of the insured token will return to zero due to the failure of claim.)

Rights and Interests of UNCLAIM Holders:

After January 30, you can get back one unit of collateral through UNCLAIM.

Purchase of Claim and Unclaim Tokens (Direct Insurance or Underwriting)

As an insurance market, users can buy tokens directly to insure their ETH or HT. When buying an insured token, you need to pay attention to the maturity time. The claim token will return to zero when it matures, and the Unclaim token can be exchanged for a unit of collateral when it matures.

Buy Tokens

In addition to casting tokens, you can also buy these tokens in the market. Enter the insurance market, click the transaction button, jump to the MDEX market, and buy the corresponding tokens.

You can sell the insured token at a predetermined price before the expiration date agreed by CLAIM. It can also be used for liquidity mining.

Exercise of Rights

After insurance, the income should be realized through the exercise of rights. When insurance, the price of eth/ht token at that time should be locked by purchasing claim token. ETH / HT can be sold at a predetermined price before maturity.

Jump to the insurance market:

Click “exercise”, means to sell the claim token, and sell the corresponding amount of eth/ht at the predetermined price.

And get usdt. The entire exercise process completes.
