Renzo Protocol
Renzo is a Liquid Restaking Token (LRT) and Strategy Manager for EigenLayer. It is the interface to the EigenLayer ecosystem securing Actively Validated Services (AVSs) and offering a higher yield than ETH staking. The protocol abstracts all complexity from the end-user and enables easy collaboration between them and EigenLayer node operators.

Rewards by Threat Level
Rewards are distributed according to the impact of the vulnerability based on the Immunefi Vulnerability Severity Classification System V2.3.
Reward Calculation for Critical Level Reports
For critical smart contract bugs, the reward amount is 10% of the funds directly affected up to a maximum of USD 500 000. The calculation of the amount of funds at risk is based on the time and date the bug report is submitted. However, a minimum reward of USD 100 000 is to be rewarded in order to incentivize security researchers against withholding a critical bug report.
Repeatable Attack Limitations
If the smart contract where the vulnerability exists can be upgraded or paused, only the initial attacks within the first hour will be considered for a reward. This is because the project can mitigate the risk of further exploitation by upgrading or pausing the component where the vulnerability exists. The reward amount will depend on the severity of the impact and the funds at risk.
For critical repeatable attacks on smart contracts that cannot be upgraded or paused, the project will consider the cumulative impact of the repeatable attacks for a reward. This is because the project cannot prevent the attacker from repeatedly exploiting the vulnerability until all funds are drained and/or other irreversible damage is done. Therefore, this warrants a reward equivalent to 10% of funds at risk, capped at the maximum critical reward.
Reward Calculation for High Level Reports
High vulnerabilities concerning theft/permanent freezing of unclaimed yield/royalties are rewarded within a range of USD 10 000 - USD 100 000 depending on the funds at risk, capped at the maximum high reward.
In the event of temporary freezing, the reward doubles from the full frozen value for every additional 24h that the funds are temporarily frozen, up until a max cap of the high reward. This is because as the duration of the freezing lengthens, the potential for greater damage and subsequent reputational harm intensifies. Thus, by increasing the reward proportionally with the frozen duration, the project ensures stronger incentives for bug disclosure of this nature.
For critical web/apps bug reports will be rewarded with USD 25 000, only if the impact leads to:
- A loss of funds involving an attack that does not require any user action
- Private key or private key generation leakage leading to unauthorized access to user funds
All other impacts that would be classified as Critical would be rewarded a flat amount of USD 10 000. The rest of the severity levels are paid out according to the Impact in Scope table.
Reward Payment Terms
Payouts are handled by the Renzo team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payments are done in USDC
The calculation of the net amount rewarded is based on the average price between CoinMarketCap.com and CoinGecko.com at the time the bug report was submitted. No adjustments are made based on liquidity availability.
Program Overview
Renzo is a Liquid Restaking Token (LRT) and Strategy Manager for EigenLayer. It is the interface to the EigenLayer ecosystem securing Actively Validated Services (AVSs) and offering a higher yield than ETH staking. The protocol abstracts all complexity from the end-user and enables easy collaboration between them and EigenLayer node operators.
Renzo strongly advocates for EigenLayer and its goal of facilitating permissionless innovation on Ethereum, and programmatically acquiring trust for the ecosystem. Renzo is built to promote the widespread adoption of Eigenlayer.
The Renzo Protocol is built as an interface to the EigenLayer Protocol smart contracts. As EigenLayer will be upgrading contracts on an ongoing basis, it should be assumed that future releases may cause breaking changes against the existing deployed smart contracts in the Renzo Protocol. Future developments of the Renzo Protocol will be deployed in concert with EigenLayer upgrades, therefore, disclosures relating to potential future vulnerabilities from an upgrade will be out of scope.

Renzo provides rewards in USDC, denominated in USD. For more details about the payment process, please view the Rewards by Threat Level section further below.
KYC Requirement
Renzo will be requesting KYC information in order to pay for successful bug submissions. The following information will be required:
- Full name
- Date of birth
- Proof of address (either a redacted bank statement with address or a recent utility bill)
- Copy of Passport or other Government issued ID
Eligibility Criteria
Security researchers who wish to participate must adhere to the rules of engagement set forth in this program and cannot be:
- On OFACs SDN list
- Official contributor, both past or present
- Employees and/or individuals closely associated with the project
- Security auditors that directly or indirectly participated in the audit review
Responsible Publication
Renzo adheres to category 3 - Approval Required. This Policy determines what information researchers are allowed to make public from their submitted bug reports. For more information about the category selected, please refer to our Responsible Publication page.
Primacy of Impact vs Primacy of Rules
Renzo adheres to the Primacy of Rules, which means that the whole bug bounty program is run strictly under the terms and conditions stated within this page.
Proof of Concept (PoC) Requirements
A PoC, demonstrating the bug's impact, is required for this program and has to comply with the Immunefi PoC Guidelines and Rules.
Known Issue Assurance
Renzo commits to providing Known Issue Assurance to bug submissions through their program. This means that Renzo will either disclose known issues publicly, or at the very least, privately via a self-reported bug submission.
In a potential scenario of a mediation, this allows for a more objective and streamlined process, in order to prove that an issue is known. Otherwise, assuming the bug report is valid, it would result in the report being considered as in-scope, and due a reward.
Previous Audits
Renzo’s completed audit reports can be found at https://github.com/Renzo-Protocol/contracts-public/blob/master/Audit/Renzo_Protocol_EVM_Contracts_Smart_Contract_Security_Assessment.pdf. Any unfixed vulnerabilities mentioned in these reports are not eligible for a reward.
Feasibility Limitations
The project may be receiving reports that are valid (the bug and attack vector are real) and cite assets and impacts that are in scope, but there may be obstacles or barriers to executing the attack in the real world. In other words, there is a question about how feasible the attack really is. Conversely, there may also be mitigation measures that projects can take to prevent the impact of the bug, which are not feasible or would require unconventional action and hence, should not be used as reasons for downgrading a bug's severity.
Therefore, Immunefi has developed a set of feasibility limitation standards which by default states what security researchers, as well as projects, can or cannot cite when reviewing a bug report.
Immunefi Standard Badge
By adhering to Immunefi’s best practice recommendations, Renzo has satisfied the requirements for the Immunefi Standard Badge.
KYC required
The submission of KYC information is a requirement for payout processing.
