How to join Solana - Firedancer V1 Audit Competition?

The Firedancer V1 Audit Competition was a premier bug bounty event hosted exclusively on the Immunefi platform. Whitehats and security researchers were tasked with inspecting approximately 636,000 lines of C code within the Firedancer v1.0 branch. Testing was strictly limited to local network forks to prevent disruptions to the live Solana mainnet. To qualify for payouts, participants were required to submit fully runnable Proof of Concepts (PoCs) alongside their vulnerability reports, with strict limits stipulating that compiler-dependent bugs must apply specifically to GCC 8.5, 13, and 14 environments.

The competition utilized a dynamic, scaling reward model that maxed out at a massive $1,000,000 if one or more critical vulnerabilities were discovered. The total reward pool was intricately divided into sub-allocations: a Primary Pool of $700,000, an All Stars Pool of $200,000, and a Podium Pool of $100,000. If no bugs were found, a baseline $50,000 pool was guaranteed. All eventual rewards were designated to be distributed as USDC directly on the Solana network, requiring all successful participants to pass a mandatory KYC verification process before receiving funds.
