Maple Finance is a next-generation institutional asset management platform that bridges DeFi transparency with traditional financial sophistication. Since 2021, Maple has offered secured lending, structured products, and institutional staking—all verifiable on-chain. With the 2024 launch of the SYRUP token, Maple empowers its community through staking, governance, and protocol-driven growth, leading the evolution of institutional credit markets in decentralized finance.
Program Overview Maple Finance offers a structured bug bounty program designed to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in both its smart contracts and frontend infrastructure. The program is part of Maple’s commitment to platform security and transparency.
Reward Structure Rewards follow a 4-tier severity model, varying by the criticality of the issue and the type of asset affected (smart contracts or web applications). For critical smart contract vulnerabilities, rewards are capped at 10% of potential economic damage, with a minimum payout of $50,000 and a maximum of $500,000. Considerations such as brand and PR impact may influence final reward amounts at the discretion of the team.
Submission Requirements All reports must include a functional proof of concept (PoC) that demonstrates real impact on an in-scope asset. Submissions without executable code or with only theoretical analysis will not be considered eligible for a reward.
Payouts Rewards are denominated in USD and are distributed directly by the Maple team. Payouts are made in either USDC or MPL tokens, depending on Maple’s discretion.
