Decentralized reinsurance platform Re has launched two blockchain-based yield products for institutional investors on the Avalanche (AVAX) network, alongside a points-based rewards program for early users, bridging traditional capital markets with blockchain-based financial infrastructure.
Institutional-Grade Token Offerings
The tokens, reUSD (Basis-Plus) and reUSDe (Insurance Alpha), offer exposure to regulated insurance markets through a permissioned, on-chain framework.

Both are fully collateralized, require KYC/AML verification, and are linked to Avalanche-native decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols.
ReUSD generates yield from U.S. Treasury bills and delta-neutral Ethereum basis trades, offering liquidity via Curve with direct redemption options in development. It is structured to avoid exposure to insurance-related risks.
ReUSDe is backed by collateralized underwriting of U.S. insurance policies, including homeowners, auto, and workers’ compensation, with transaction data recorded on-chain and built-in liquidity mechanisms.
Re Points Program
Re also introduced the Re Points Program, which allocates points to participants who invest in the two tokens through the company’s decentralized application or provide liquidity on partner platforms Pharaoh Exchange and Blackhole Curve. Points will count toward future incentives, though details on specific rewards have not been disclosed.
“Onchain institutional capital is looking for transparent, sustainable yield sources,” said Re CEO Karn Saroya. “By launching on Avalanche, we can deliver real-world returns with on-chain speed, composability, and compliance.”
Reinsurance Goes On-Chain
Avalanche, known for its low-latency blockchain infrastructure, has been expanding its institutional-grade DeFi ecosystem. The network’s integrations with platforms such as Ethena and Pendle Finance are expected to offer Re token holders additional trading and liquidity options while meeting compliance requirements.
Re functions as a decentralized marketplace for reinsurance, the sector of the insurance industry that provides coverage to insurers for large-scale risks. The platform holds all collateral on-chain and removes traditional intermediaries, which the company says improves transparency and efficiency.
The launch comes amid growing interest in tokenizing real-world assets, including insurance-linked products, as blockchain companies look to attract regulated capital. By December 2024, the tokenized real-world asset market (excluding stablecoins) had grown to $15.2 billion and surged further to over $24 billion by June 2025, marking an impressive 85% increase year over year.
Analysts say such moves could help DeFi platforms tap into markets traditionally dominated by established financial institutions, though adoption will depend on regulatory clarity and investor demand.
