Jump Crypto, the developer of the Solana (SOL) validation client Firedancer, has launched a bounty program to test for bugs in the initial version. Firedancer aims to enhance the network resilience and security of Solana, making it a more attractive option for developers and validators.
The first version, Firedancer v0.1 (Frankendancer), will undergo an intensive security review with a $1 million reward pool managed by Immunefi. Firedancer is designed for high-speed and secure operations in blockchain. The project demonstrated its ability to process over one million transactions per second during a live demonstration in 2022. Additionally, Firedancer mitigates risks associated with unified systems.

The program, which starts on July 10, 2024, offers rewards for vulnerabilities and invites security analysts and developers to test Firedancer v0.1 for vulnerabilities. Managed by Immunefi, the program offers rewards up to $1 million, with the highest severity bugs receiving the maximum payouts. Participants are required to go through Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures, and Immunefi promises to review bug reports within 24 hours on business days. The program runs for six weeks and concludes on August 21, 2024.
According to the information, the technical team will communicate with users and developers through the “firedancer-v0.1-boost” channel on Immunefi’s Discord. Shortly after the launch of the bounty, a live technical review will be organized to demonstrate the features and capabilities of the client.
