Abstract
Example implementations provide a blockchain-based bug bounty platform/system for discovering system vulnerability. To prevent attack method from becoming public, the attack and test are performed in the attacker's (end-user's) private blockchain (BC) environment, and the confidential computing technology provides proof of testing. The amount of the reward awarded may vary based on the rarity of the vulnerability discovered. The feature values of current transactions are extracted and compared against features values of prior transactions to determine vulnerabilities and associated rewards.
