The rise in rates isn't about increased extreme weather. It's due to increased construction and repair costs. Insurance plans have gotten more expensive because the materials and labor are much more expensive. The techno optimist take is we need to lower the supply side cost.

While the US Home Insurance System collapses a new on-chain global insurance system using crypto rails will overcome these challenges allowing for the growth that these insurance companies allowed to occurred in the US in the past to happen worldwide!
