Today, HackenProof turns 9. 🎉 Since 2017, we’ve come a long way: from our first researcher joining the platform to a global community of 82,000+ security researchers. From our first valid vulnerability to 85,000+ validated reports and $26M+ in rewards paid to security researchers. So, for our birthday, we decided to dig through the archives and see where it all started. Here are some of our favorite firsts: 🔹First researcher to join HackenProof – @jackhcable 🔹First valid vulnerability submitted – hackenproof.com/hackers/isha… 🔹First Critical vulnerability discovered – @aboul3la 🔹First major blockchain program launched – @vechainofficial 🔹First Web2 program launched – ttn.global 🔹First crowdsourced audit launched – @auroraisnear 🔹First $1M bounty payout – hackenproof.com/hackers/blaz… 🔹First blockchain cybersecurity education partnership – @hackthebox_eu 🔹First HackenProof podcast episode featuring @gkrastenov Every step of this journey was built together with our partners, customers, team members, and the security community who trusted us along the way. A special thank you to every researcher who has been part of the HackenProof journey. Your reports, feedback, and collaboration continue to shape the platform we build together. 9 years down – and we’re just getting started. 🚀 🔗 Share and celebrate with us → xitter.cf/intent/tweet?text=Cele…
