Rewards
Rewards by Threat Level
Reward amount is 10% of the funds directly affected, capped at the maximum critical reward of:
$20,000Minimum reward to discourage security researchers from withholding a bug report:
$5,000Rewards 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 Blockchain/DLT bugs, the reward amount is 10% of the funds directly affected, capped at the maximum critical reward USD 20 000. However, a minimum reward of USD 5 000 is to be rewarded in order to incentivize security researchers against withholding on a bug report.
For critical Blockchain/DLT bugs with a non-funds-at risk impact, the reward will be paid out as follows:
- Network not being able to confirm new transactions (total network shutdown) - USD 5 000
- Unintended permanent chain split requiring hard fork (network partition requiring hard fork) - USD 5 000
- Permanent freezing of funds (fix requires hardfork) - USD 5 000
For critical web/apps bugs, reports will be rewarded with USD 10 000, 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 4 000. The rest of the severity levels are paid out according to the Impact in Scope table.
Reward Calculation for High Level Reports
For high Blockchain/DLT non-funds-at risk impacts, the reward will be paid out as follows:
- Unintended chain split (network partition) - USD 4 000
- Temporary freezing of network transactions by delaying one block by 500% or more of the average block time of the preceding 24 hours beyond standard difficulty adjustments - USD 4 000
- Causing network processing nodes to process transactions from the mempool beyond set parameters - USD 4 000
- RPC API crash affecting projects with greater than or equal to 25% of the market capitalization on top of the respective layer - USD 4 000
Reward Payment Terms
Payouts are handled by the Zano team directly and are denominated in USD. However, payments are done in USDC on Ethereum.
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.

Responsible Publication
Zano 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
Zano adheres to the Primacy of Impact for the following impacts:
- Blockchain/DLT — Critical
- Website & Application — Critical
Primacy of Impact means that the impact is prioritized rather than a specific asset. This encourages security researchers to report on all bugs with an in-scope impact, even if the affected assets are not in scope.
For more information, please see Best Practices: Primacy of Impact
When submitting a report on Immunefi’s dashboard, the security researcher should select the Primacy of Impact asset placeholder. If the team behind this project has multiple programs, those other programs are not covered under Primacy of Impact for this program. Instead, check if those other projects have a bug bounty program on Immunefi.
If the project has any testnet and/or mock files, those will not be covered under Primacy of Impact.
All other impacts are considered under the Primacy of Rules, which means that they are bound by the terms and conditions set within this program.
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.
Previous Audits
Zano has completed an Invite-only Program with Immunefi. The audit reports can be found at https://drive.google.com/file/d/1R8jcc5_vFfCdR4jAmtfEGvmCoa2j0dJe/view. 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.
KYC not required
No KYC information is required for payout processing.
Proof of Concept
Proof of concept is always required for all severities.
