  Credit default swaps (CDS) are financial derivatives that allow investors to protect themselves against the risk of default on a particular cryptocurrency. They work by transferring the risk of default from the holder of the cryptocurrency to the seller of the CDS. If the cryptocurrency defaults, the seller of the CDS is obligated to compensate the holder for the loss. This provides a form of insurance against default risk in the cryptocurrency market.

  In simple terms, credit default swaps in the cryptocurrency industry are like insurance policies. They allow investors to hedge their bets and protect themselves from potential losses if a cryptocurrency they hold defaults. It's a way to manage risk and ensure that investors are not left empty-handed in case of a default event.
