Stacks

Rewards are distributed according to the impact of the vulnerability based on the Immunefi Vulnerability Severity Classification System V2.2. This is a simplified 5-level scale, with separate scales for each category, encompassing everything from consequence of exploitation to privilege required to likelihood of a successful exploit. If there is any discrepancy with the classification in the Impacts in Scope section, the classification in the Impacts in Scope section will hold true.

Please note that Critical finding bounties are capped at 10% of the damage resulting from the finding. This mostly takes into account technical and financial damage but also includes the “human” impact, including reputational risk. We will guarantee a minimum payout of $25,000 USD for all valid Critical findings.
