How to Use the Safety Module

Problem
DeFI is an emerging technology with several potential risks.
A number of factors, including the risks associated with smart contracts, liquidations, and oracle failure, might result in an unpredicted loss of funds in DeFI protocols.
Solution
A safety module is implemented to protect the protocol against those risks.
The main role of the safety module is to safeguard the protocol against unexpected loss of funds.
The safety module acts as a mitigation mechanism designed to absorb the impact of any unfortunate shortfall event on the protocol. It serves as an insurance module and adds an additional security layer to the protocol.
Users can deposit their EGLD, MEX, RIDE, USDC, and HTM and earn safety incentives in the form of the HTM token that is purchased with a portion of the ecosystem's revenue.
To offset the losses sustained in the event of an unfortunate occurrence, a percentage of the funds deposited in the safety module may be utilized.
