💸 Polygon Bug Bounty 👉 Apply
Polygon is a Layer 2 scaling solution that achieves scale by utilizing sidechains for off-chain computation and a decentralized network of Proof-of-Stake (PoS) validators.
💸 Raydium Bug Bounty 👉 Apply
Raydium is an automated market maker (AMM) built on the Solana blockchain which leverages a central limit order book to enable lightning-fast trades, shared liquidity and new features for earning yield.
💸 SushiSwap Bug Bounty 👉 Apply
SushiSwap is an automated market-making (AMM) decentralized exchange (DEX) that allows users to provide liquidity for token swaps.
💸 Hydration Bug Bounty 👉 Apply
Hydration is the leading liquidity protocol on Polkadot. Its mission is to make DeFi efficient, simple, and unstoppable. To achieve this, Hydration unites swaps, lending and a stablecoin currency under the roof of a single, scalable appchain.
💸 MakerDAO Bug Bounty 👉 Apply
MakerDAO is one of the first DeFi protocols in the crypto space that introduced the first crypto-backed stablecoin called Dai (DAI), which is set at a value of 1:1 with the United States Dollar. It is governed by those who hold and/or are delegated MKR, the governance token of the protocol.
✍️ Sharing UTXO: Form and Characterization 👉 Read(CN)
As the name implies, it allows multiple users to share ownership of a UTXO and have their funds reside in the same UTXO. The focus of this concept is not on managing permissions, but on expressing and controlling the internal state - allowing multiple users to have their funds in a single UTXO, but still be able to keep them in their own custody without other users infringing on their ownership.
✍️ The First App on Bodhi 👉 Read
Raised $10M, hired 100 people, developed version 2.0, held 10 events, signed 1,000 KOLs... No, we did none of the above. In fact, they are on my "avoid doing" list. As the creator of Bodhi, being busy selling my child is not my job. My job is to better understand her, so that maybe, someday, more people can understand and help raise her too.
✍️ The Starknet ‘Bolt’ Upgrade: 2-Second TXs Are Here 👉 Read
Starknet makes it possible to build any dApp on Ethereum, no matter the computing power required. Dubbed by the community “Bolt,” today’s v0.13.2 upgrade expands this capacity for future use cases by accelerating transaction confirmation times and building on the cost-saving and performance optimizations planned for in Starknet’s updated 2024 roadmap. The two main features of the upgrade? Meet “parallel execution” and “block packing.”
