IInsurance

The IInsurance interface makes it easy for developers to build custom support for any insurnace token protocol.

All insurance adapters must inherit from and adhere to the IInsurance interface.

interface IInsurance {
    function buyInsurance(uint256 amount) external returns (uint256);
    function sellInsurance(uint256 amount) external returns (uint256);
    function getCostOfInsurance(uint256 amount) external view returns (uint256);
    function isActive() external returns (bool);
}
