Summary
We've hit a milestone, paying out over half a million dollars to hackers in the last week alone. This brings our total October payout to $1.6 million to over 550 hackers, with some individual payouts exceeding $40,000. Our community has grown exponentially over the past five years, with payouts increasing by more than 80% from 2018 to 2019. We've also seen a significant increase in critical findings, including over 300 P1s, and have launched initiatives such as Bugcrowd University to support our growing community of hackers. As we approach the end of the year, we're excited to see what the Crowd will accomplish next.
