Program Overview

Saddle is an automated market maker optimized for trading between pegged value crypto assets.

Further resources regarding the Saddle can be found on their website, https://docs.saddle.finance/.

The bug bounty program is focused around its smart contracts and is mostly concerned with the loss of user funds.

Rewards by Threat Level

Rewards are distributed according to the impact of the vulnerability based on the Immunefi Vulnerability Severity Classification System. This is a simplified 5-level scale, with separate scales for websites/apps and smart contracts/blockchains, encompassing everything from consequence of exploitation to privilege required to likelihood of a successful exploit.

Payouts are handled by the Saddle team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payouts are done in USDC.
