Solana has allocated $1 million to search for bugs in the Firedancer client

The Solana blockchain team will distribute $1 million to users who find errors in the first version of the Firedancer validator client. 

Announced by an anonymous developer under the pseudonym Cantelope Peel and supported by Immunefi, the program starts on July 10 and will last six weeks. 

To receive a reward, you must pass KYC verification. 

Cantelope Peel told X that work on Firedancer is progressing successfully.

Firedancer, developed by Jump Crypto, is designed to increase Solana's resilience. The client is implemented in C/C++, which optimizes it for high-frequency trading. 

In May, the Solana community proposed SIMD-0096, which fully transfers the commission for priority transactions to validators. Before that, half of the reward was sent to the burning address, and the other half was sent to the user who extracted the block. 

Earlier, CoinGecko analysts recognized the Solana network as the fastest among large blockchains. On April 6, the average daily number of transactions per second reached a record high of 1,504 amid the meme token boom.

Recall that in April, developers updated the software as part of efforts to combat blockchain congestion, which leads to transaction delays.
