To the security researchers reading this: you deserve better than the spam queue.
You know the cycle. You find a valid critical. The project disputes severity. The payout drags for months. Meanwhile open platforms bury real findings under thousands of junk submissions.
That's the exact problem CertiK Hunt launched to kill.
Invite-only, so signal beats volume. Programs and researchers both vetted. And the part that matters most: every program's scope and severity terms are defined up front — built on CertiK's industry-standard severity framework — so you know exactly how a finding gets classified before you commit a single hour.
One week in: 300+ researcher applications, first program live, first reports already in triage.
On July 15, the team behind Hunt presents at our Manhattan HQ — and takes questions face to face.
So, researchers: what's the one policy that would make you commit your best hours to a platform?
Drop it below. I'll put your answers in front of the team on the 15th — and tag you with what they say.
