Spotted an interesting case out of Washington State: three childcare providers walked away with $778,450 in subsidies that mathematically shouldn't have been allowed under existing state regulations. Someone dug into the data, found the discrepancy, and filed a report. Result? They got paid $1,000 as a bounty for catching it. The program apparently has more of these inconsistencies waiting to be uncovered, and they're offering additional bounties for findings. Kind of like how on-chain monitoring works—financial scrutiny, rewards for accuracy, and gaps that need fixing.

Wow, a $780,000 bug bounty but only $1,000 reward? This bounty ratio is really incredible. I feel like I should go dig into the state government database.

I was just wondering what's going on. How could a $780,000 bug be so obvious and go unnoticed? We really should learn from on-chain auditing practices.

780,000-dollar vulnerability only rewards 1,000 bucks? How long would it take to break even, haha

There is actually a bounty mechanism for compliance vulnerabilities. Isn't this the real-world version of on-chain auditing... The arbitrage opportunity of 780,000 was discovered and only rewarded with 1000 yuan, which is too outrageous.

778k just disappeared like that? Is the auditing system this lax? It feels like there's a black hole everywhere.

Nah, this is what you need to learn about on-chain governance. Relying solely on the auditing department has already let things slip through like a sieve.
