Project Overview

The AKAS DAO Bug Bounty Program is designed to ensure the security, stability, and transparency of our decentralized, free-floating reserve currency protocol. We invite security researchers worldwide to participate in the review process, with a focus on identifying potential risks that could impact user fund safety, protocol stability, or the fairness of governance.

The AKAS protocol is built on several innovative mechanisms, including POL (Protocol Owned Liquidity), PBL (Protocol Burned Liquidity), RBS (Range Bound Stability), and EM (Emissions Module, a flexible supply mechanism). Together, these components create a unique decentralized financial framework. We encourage researchers to examine these core modules and report any vulnerabilities they discover.

All verified security issues will be addressed promptly and rewarded based on severity. Our standard process provides an initial response within 24 hours and a full assessment within 72 hours, ensuring that findings receive swift and fair consideration.

This program reflects our long-term commitment to protocol security and underscores our dedication to continuous innovation in algorithmic stablecoins and decentralized governance—working with developers worldwide to build a more resilient financial ecosystem.

Program Rules
  • Please provide detailed reports with reproducible steps. If the report is not detailed enough to reproduce the issue - the issue will not be eligible for a reward. Submit one vulnerability per report - unless you need to chain vulnerabilities to provide impact. When duplicates occur we only award the first report that was received (provided that it can be fully reproduced). Multiple vulnerabilities caused by one underlying issue will be awarded one bounty. Make a good faith effort to avoid privacy violations - destruction of data - and interruption or degradation of our service. Only interact with accounts you own or with explicit permission of the account holder. Do not attempt to conduct post-exploitation including modification or destruction of data - and interruption or degradation of services. Do not attempt to perform brute-force attacks or denial-of-service attacks. Do not attempt to target employees or customers including social engineering attacks - phishing attacks or physical attacks.
The following activities are prohibited by this bug bounty program:
  • Any testing with mainnet or public testnet contracts - all testing should be done on private testnets. Automated testing of services that generate significant amounts of traffic. Public disclosure of an unpatched vulnerability in an embargoed bounty. Social engineering (e.g. phishing, vishing, smishing) of any kind.
