The Cardano Foundation, an independent Swiss not-for-profit organization overseeing the advancement of Cardano ($ADA) and its ecosystem, has temporarily doubled the rewards offered in its bug bounty program in an effort to further boost the network’s security.
根据一个 update on HackerOne, bug bounty rewards have been doubled for a total of six weeks ending March 25, 2022, with the largest potential bounty being $20,000 for critical vulnerabilities affecting Cardano nodes.
Other vulnerabilities affecting nodes may grant white hath ackers rewards between $10,000 and $800. On the other hand, vulnerabilities affecting Cardano wallets, can offer rewards ranging from $500 to $15,000 for exploits deemed critical.
卡尔达诺基金会详细说明，黑客必须提供详细的报告和可重复的步骤，才有资格获得这些奖励。 基金会在更新中写道，它“期待与安全社区合作，找出安全漏洞，以确保我们的企业和客户的安全。”
它补充说，该计划旨在“加强卡尔达诺品牌”，同时涵盖“访问和管理在卡尔达诺区块链上发行的加密资产的基本项目”。
据CryptoGlobe报道， Cardano Foundation launched its bug bounty program for ethical hackers in September of last year with the hacker-powered security firm HackerOne to look for vulnerabilities in the project’s blockchain.
Bug bounty rewards are a popular way for organizations to invite ethical hackers in to work with them and get rewarded for helping make their products and services safer and have been growing in the cryptocurrency space. In 2018, cryptocurrency-related bug bounties netted hackers nearly $900,000. This year alone, a security researcher who fixed a critical vulnerability on Ethereum layer-two scaling solution was awarded a $2 million bounty.
The stakes for Cardano have also been growing along with its network. As reported, the number of addresses holding ADA has kept on rising in January to hit a new 4.53 million all-time high as monthly transactions on the cryptocurrency’s network also kept on growing.
These addresses have now 进行了超过 30 万笔交易，而数量 部署在网络上的智能合约超过 1,000 个 这是今年的第一次。
