Immunefi

Web3 / Globalfeatured

Overview

The leading Web3 and smart-contract bug bounty platform. Hosts DeFi protocols with some of the highest maximum bounties in the industry.

How to make the most of it

  • · Specialize in Solidity/Vyper, protocol economics, and common DeFi bug classes before competing.
  • · Read each project's severity ladder and PoC requirements carefully.
  • · Focus on economic impact and invariant breaks, not only classic web bugs.
  • · Build a public research track record; white-hat reputation matters in crypto.
  • · Stay current with Immunefi rules and KYC/payout requirements.

Basic rules

  • Test only assets listed in the Immunefi program scope.
  • Never drain real funds beyond minimal proof; follow responsible PoC guidance.
  • No front-running or exploiting live for profit outside bounty process.
  • Follow Immunefi and project-specific rules of engagement.
  • Complete identity/KYC steps required for payouts.

Always read the live program policy — platform norms never override scope.
