Following the burn, the protocol shared the announcement and also the proof of burn via their social media. The token burn essentially means Uno Re sent the tokens to a wallet no one has access to, officially removing them from circulation. The protocol burns its own utility token in an effort to decrease total supply.
$UNO was first tradable on March 18, 2021. The $UNO token has a total market cap of $2,448,617 with a 24hr trading volume of over $220,500 at the time of writing. It has a circulating supply of 73,232,181 UNO, and a total supply of more than 384 Million.
$UNO, the deflationary token, has been burned 3 times by the protocol. The first-ever $UNO burn was done on November 10th, 2021 where 89,001 $UNO was burned off to the market. Following the first burn, a much bigger and better second token burn didn’t take long. On November 30, 2021, exactly 152,052 $UNO was burned by the protocol.
On March 28, 2022, Uno Re bought back and burned 166,028 $UNO off the open market, making it the third in chronological order and largest one in terms of the number of individual tokens burned.
And finally, the fourth burn, conducted on August 4th, is the largest buyback and burn the protocol has ever conducted. This gradual increase in the tokens bought back and burned off the open market indicates positive growth in protocol revenue, and also reflects a net positive growth indicator in terms of the $UNO token itself.
The $UNO token will offer further benefits, enhance user engagement and assure quality of service provided to build loyalty into the ecosystem. The token allows for any on-chain asset to be insured against vulnerability, essentially tapping into a completely new, under-utilised market segment.
Uno Re, the world’s first DeFi insurance protocol’s mission is to enable and advance a decentralized world where users can secure their crypto while investing in risk – the safest asset class in the world. The platform allows the community to propose innovative insurance products to the space, thus propelling a new generation of Insurtech companies steered by the Uno Re ecosystem.

Omnichain protocols offer the answer to blockchain fragmentation
Blockchain fragmentation, stemming from the proliferation of diverse blockchain networks, poses challenges for interoperability and seamless data exchange. In response, omnichain protocols emerge as a solution to bridge these fragmented ecosystems.
These protocols aim to create a unified framework that enables communication and data transfer across multiple blockchain networks. By establishing common standards and protocols, omnichain solutions facilitate interoperability, allowing different blockchains to interact seamlessly.
The adoption of omnichain protocols addresses key issues such as data silos, redundant processes, and inefficiencies caused by blockchain fragmentation. These protocols enable businesses and developers to leverage the strengths of various blockchain networks while mitigating the drawbacks of fragmentation.
With omnichain protocols, organizations can achieve greater flexibility, scalability, and efficiency in their blockchain implementations. These protocols provide a foundation for building interconnected blockchain ecosystems, fostering innovation and collaboration across industries.
As blockchain technology continues to evolve, omnichain protocols play a vital role in overcoming the challenges of blockchain fragmentation and unlocking the full potential of distributed ledger technology.

State-owned German Bank Set to Introduce Blockchain-Backed Digital Bonds
Germany’s state-owned bank, Kreditanstalt fuer Wiederaufbau (KfW), is set to embrace the digital age by issuing its first blockchain-based digital bond. This move signals the bank’s foray into blockchain technology and its commitment to driving its adoption in the financial sector.
The bond that KfW plans to issue will be tokenized, marking it as a ‘crypto security.’ This tokenization involves representing the bond on a blockchain, enabling validation of its transactional history and ownership.
Tokenizing bonds offers several advantages, including the automation of various aspects of bond management such as interest payments and maturity settlements. Additionally, it reduces the need for intermediaries in the process, thereby cutting down on overall transaction costs.
Melanie Kehr, a member of the Executive Board of KfW Group, expressed the bank’s innovative approach in testing new financial market products. She emphasized that the issuance of the digital bond under the German Electronic Securities Act reflects the bank’s commitment to exploring innovative solutions in the financial market.
The issuance of the blockchain-based bond marks a significant step for KfW, as it seeks to attract investors and enhance efficiency and scalability in bond transactions. Tim Armbruster, Treasurer at KfW, highlighted the importance of digitalization in increasing efficiency and scalability, emphasizing the bank’s goal of attracting a wide range of investors for the digital bond.
KfW plans to engage in dialogues with institutional investors in Europe to better understand their needs and explore the potential of blockchain technology in fintech. Cashlink Technologies GmbH, a Frankfurt-based fintech company, will serve as the crypto securities registrar for KfW, facilitating the issuance of the digital bond.
The decision by KfW to issue a blockchain-based digital bond underscores the growing interest in blockchain technology within the financial sector. It represents a significant step towards leveraging blockchain for innovation and efficiency in financial markets.
