Shardeum collaborates with leading web3 bug bounty platform to test the network head of mainnet launch, offering a total of $700,000 USD in bounties
Shardeum, the autoscaling layer-1 blockchain, announces a partnership with Immunefi, the leading bug bounty and security services platform for Web3, to facilitate Shardeum’s first bug bounty ahead of their mainnet launch. The bug bounty will be used to further detect any critical issues and bugs within the network and act as a major step in ensuring steadfast security before Shardeum’s mainnet goes live.
While Shardeum has conducted several internal security audits with third-party vendors, this is Shardeum’s first bug bounty where individuals can essentially try to “break the system” through ethical hacking to detect bugs and vulnerabilities. If participants can provide proper proof of concept and show replicability, they are provided bounties for their participation in the program. Shardeum is partnering with Immunefi to facilitate this program and allow for seamless recruitment and participation from developers across the globe.
