On July 9th, cryptocurrency trading platform Coinbase partnered with Cantina to launch a $5.000 million bug bounty program focused on the security of its on-chain products and Base blockchain's smart contracts. Vulnerabilities submitted through the Cantina platform will be evaluated by Web3 security experts, and the reward criteria will be based on the reproducibility and technical impact of the vulnerability.

Previously, Coinbase and Cantina have collaborated on several key protocol components, including verification pools, error proof audits, and Nitro validators.
