Last week’s Builder Spotlight featured Otomato, showing how no-code automation and private notifications unlock hands-on privacy.

As part of iExec's Builder Month, a four-week showcase of live privacy integrations on Arbitrum, the spotlight now turns to Incentive. Incentive introduces recovery markets, where hack claims meet private, verifiable alerts delivered by iExec.

The case for recovery markets

When a protocol exploit freezes funds, ecosystems can sit in limbo for months. Liquidity stalls, coordination splinters, and rumor drives decision-making.

Recovery markets turn that uncertainty into action: victims can sell part of their claims for immediate liquidity, investors take positions based on research, and markets agree on prices as new information comes in.

Incentive provides the venue where these claims can be listed, priced, and settled under clear rules. Transforming “wait and hope” into plan and act.

Incentive x iExec: Receive private notifications for Recovery Markets

To make these markets usable, we need timely updates delivered privately, not performative blast messages. Incentive is powered by iExec Web3Messaging, delivering private notifications without exposing your contact info.

• What you get: notifications on new markets, price/liquidity shifts, claim updates, and governance milestones.
• How they arrive: via Web3Mail (detailed email) or Web3Telegram (concise chat).
• Why it’s private: you must encrypt both your email and Telegram Chat ID to participate. No handles harvested, no exposure.
• Why it’s trustworthy: alerts are secured inside Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs).
• Who’s in control: you set and manage preferences directly in the Incentive interface.

This way, you act on signals that matter. First to market, tracking liquidity shifts, and following claim status, without sacrificing privacy.

Everything arrives privately and verifiably via iExec’s TEEs.

With confidential delivery in place, you can move on the moments that matter:

• Be first when a new recovery market opens.
• Track price and liquidity changes as the market learns.
• Follow claim status as milestones alter potential payoffs.

We believe DeFi’s resilience depends on safety, liquidity, and privacy working together. 

Incentive advances the market design, iExec supplies the rails for private alerts. Incentive turns stalled crises into functioning markets, and with iExec’s private alerts, that coordination hardens into lasting infrastructure.
