Over the past two years, Meta Earth has steadily advanced its work across modular blockchain infrastructure, on-chain identity, and ecosystem development. To date, the number of ME IDs (verified on-chain user identities) has surpassed 5.7 million, with a growing community continuing to join the Meta Earth ecosystem. As the network scales, one thing has become increasingly clear: a thriving developer ecosystem and a robust security foundation will be the cornerstones of Meta Earth's next phase.

To further solidify the foundation of ecosystem development and comprehensively enhance the stability and security of the testnet and development environment, MetaEarth Devs officially launches the Meta Earth Bug Bounty security reward program. The program will be rolled out in three phases, with a total prize pool valued at $300,000 worth of $MEC, and a maximum reward of $5,000 worth of $MEC per individual for a single vulnerability.

Phase 1 is now officially live, with a prize pool valued at $100,000 worth of $MEC. We sincerely invite security researchers and developers worldwide to participate and jointly safeguard the security of the Meta Earth ecosystem.

Program Dates

Bug Bounty Phase 1: May 27, 2026, 07:00 UTC – June 17, 2026, 07:00 UTC

Program Rules

Scope for This Phase

ME Hub (Settlement Layer)

As the relayer and contract code for Meta Earth Bridge are not yet open-sourced, the Bridge is excluded from the scope of this Bug Bounty. For reference, developers are welcome to study the source code of the Gravity, BSC, and TRON modules.

Rewards

How to Participate

1. Please fill in the information at https://forms.gle/4AZisbddFWbnHS4M8 so that we can keep you updated on your activity progress and distribute rewards in a timely manner.

2. Submit your bug directly on GitHub during the program period, using the template below:

Vulnerability Title

[Provide a one-sentence summary, e.g. “Memory leak during ME-HUB node synchronization”]

Affected Module

• ME-Hub

• Sequencer

• SDK/API

• Documentation

• Explorer/UI

Vulnerability Description

[Describe the issue in detail, including how it can be triggered and what the potential impact is.]

Reproduction Steps

PoC (Required for Medium severity and above)

[Code / scripts / screenshots / screen recordings]

Environment Information

• Testnet block height:

• Is it consistently reproducible:

3. Upon successful submission, your report will enter the official review process.

Program Guidelines

1. If multiple participants submit the same bug, the earliest submission timestamp takes precedence; selected valid submitters among the rest may receive an additional official reward.

2. Every submission must include the testnet block height or transaction hash (Tx Hash). The technical team will reproduce and verify each report in the public testnet environment.

3. To prevent bulk low-quality submissions, low-severity vulnerabilities are capped at 3 rewarded submissions per participant per week. There is no submission limit for medium-severity vulnerabilities and, above — we strongly encourage high-quality, reproducible reports.

4. All approved bug submission links will be published across X, the full blog post, and the official program landing page, ensuring full traceability and a fair, transparent process.

5. Please submit your $MEC address (generated via ME Pass) to receive rewards. All earned $MEC can be freely exchanged to USDT and withdrawn anytime. Download ME Pass from our official website or App Store.

6. Rewards for the event will be distributed in $MEC of equivalent value, with the conversion rate based on the real-time price on the day of distribution.

7. MetaEarth Devs reserves the right of final interpretation for this program.

Help Build a More Secure MetaEarth

What MetaEarth Devs aims to build is more than a developer community — it's an open, collaborative ecosystem where contributors work together to surface issues, refine the system, and drive the continuous evolution of Meta Earth's underlying infrastructure. That's why we're starting with a Bug Bounty: by opening up our testnet and establishing community collaboration mechanisms, we want developers to be genuinely part of how the network is built and improved.

Every vulnerability report, every edge-case test, every technical verification brings Meta Earth one step closer to the stability, security, and scalability required to support large-scale Web3 applications in the future.

If you'd like to be part of building modular network security, we'd love to have you in the Meta Earth Bug Bounty. We can't wait to see what you find.
