The Dash Bug Bounty program has launched privately on the Bugcrowd platform, where selected researchers are invited to study the Dash Core software for bug identification. The program will initially run privately and then be opened to the public, allowing any white-hat hacker or security researcher to participate. The bounties range from $100 to $10,000, with potential earnings of up to $15,000 for significant bugs. The program is funded by Dash Masternode Operators through the Dash Budget system, making it one of the best-funded bug bounty programs in the cryptocurrency industry. Other applications, such as CoPay wallet and Dash Evolution, may be added after consultation with the Core Team. The program is managed by Jim Bursch and coordinated with the Dash Core Team through Holger Schinzel, aiming to provide users with a safer and more secure network.
