Feb 3, 2026

2026 started with great momentum for Nexus Mutual. Below is a recap our community shouldn’t miss.
Integrations
In collaboration with UltraYield and KelpDAO, we launched the world’s first DeFi vault with embedded cover. Depositors’ onchain risk protection starts right when they deposit into High Gain.
Powered by Nexus Mutual: OpenCover integrated with the Cap Money dApp to allow users to “toggle” onchain risk protection right when they mint their cUSD, stcUSD or Pendle YT/PT positions.
Milestones
Nexus Mutual v3 is here. The convergence of claims, capital, and product changes that materially alter how the Mutual operates and scales.
