Nexus Mutual has launched Protocol Cover for Curve LlamaLend, offering protection against smart contract risks.​ Users depositing collateral into LlamaLend can now purchase cover through Nexus Mutual on Ethereum mainnet or OpenCover on L2s.​ The coverage protects against losses due to smart contract hacks, oracle failures, severe liquidation issues, and governance attacks.​ This addition continues Nexus Mutual's recent trend of expanding coverage options, following similar launches for protocols like Spectra Finance and Credit Guild.​
