Alhamdulillah, i have won the @InfraredFinance contest.
Its been a while since my last posted win😅.
2nd consecutive contest and win, is it the rise?
Some stats:
- Time spent: 7 days
- was the only one to find all high severity issues
- Found the only solo in the code
The main thing iam happy with in this contest is the amount of learning i got:
- read a lot of EIPs (some were unrelated to the code but was intuitive to read more through)
- read some geth code, and got a grasp of how consensus/execution layers work on the code level
- read one GEAS
- run my first local node to build a POC
Downside for the above learnings is the % of coverage of those beautiful medium severity edge cases by those beautiful auditors
This code has one of the longest call flow i have ever seen.
I Love staking More than DEXs Auditing, Had much fun auditing this one
Also i may decrease my contests participation alot(in general and not related to specific platform)
Plans?
- Leverage more time on niches i believe in and love
- Join firmsss
- Only participate in contests that add to my knowledge and have proper incentives
- Become a judge (judging protocols that i love auditing), meh least likely because of the big amount of spams currently in the space and how judging may make me a hated person from newbies.
As promised. Today, we have a big announcement
We're launching registration for SpecSiege.
It's our double-check format for audits. First, an internal private audit went through the code with a full manual review. Then the community review follows. 10 days of open review on a fairly large codebase, we know, but the chance to work on an ERC-6909 European bond platform, an institutional project, doesn't come around every day.
- €15K total pot (€13K community pool, €2K fixed for the lead researcher).
- If only Lows are discovered, €5K is distributed instead.
Simply find bugs after us and get rewarded. We value your participation. We're not here just to squeeze you.

If LLMs finding bugs missed by multiple human auditors makes it super-human.
When I find bugs missed by multiple humans and AI does it make me super-super-human?
When then people catch bugs I missed do they become super-super-super-human?
Congrats to teams finding bugs with whatever tools they use.
But for the people making a living off bounties, finding stuff missed by dozens of the best auditors is just a Tuesday.
Nothing super human about it.
It is happening!
