Decimal is the native reserve currency of the Decimal blockchain and serves as a foundational component of its ecosystem. Unlike Bitcoin, DEL avoids the need for energy-intensive mining and expensive hardware by utilizing a more sustainable validator-based consensus model. New DEL tokens are issued as rewards to validators who help secure and maintain the network. Any coin holder within the Decimal ecosystem can participate in staking by delegating their assets to validators, earning passive income while supporting the network’s growth.
Program Overview The Decimal Bug Bounty Program reflects the team's ongoing commitment to product security and community collaboration. By inviting developers, ethical hackers, and researchers to report vulnerabilities within the Decimal blockchain ecosystem, the program aims to proactively mitigate risks and maintain a secure and stable environment for all users.
Reward Structure All valid submissions are evaluated under a standardized 4-level severity model, with reward amounts based on the severity of the vulnerability and the scope of the impact. For critical smart contract vulnerabilities, rewards are capped at 10% of the economic damage, with considerations including the amount of funds at risk, as well as potential public relations and branding impact. High-severity vulnerabilities may be rewarded up to 100% of the affected funds, with calculations made based on the blockchain state at the time the report is submitted.
Submission Requirements Bug reports must include a working proof of concept (PoC) along with step-by-step reproduction instructions. Reports must demonstrate a clear, measurable impact on an in-scope component. Submissions lacking code or based only on theoretical analysis will not be accepted for rewards.
Payouts Rewards are denominated and paid in DEL, and will be issued directly by the Decimal team upon successful validation of the report.
