Abstract
The following relates generally to providing insurance for one or more virtual items in a virtual environment. In some embodiments, an insurance server receives a request for insurance for one or more virtual items from a customer. The insurance server then obtains information associated with the one or more virtual items from a virtual environment server, and determines an insurance premium based upon the received information. The following also relates generally to providing backups of virtual items. In some embodiments, a backup server creates backups of virtual items by writing data associated with the virtual item to a data store. The virtual items may be fungible or non-fungible. In some embodiments, the virtual items are periodically backed up.
