Prop 48: Chain Code Audit for x/bounty Module

Dear community members:

We propose investing 165,000 CTK to engage CertiK for a comprehensive chain code audit of the x/bounty module in our Cosmos SDK-based blockchain.

The x/bounty module, designed as a decentralized science (DeSci) component for mathematical proof verification, is a cornerstone of our ecosystem. This investment aims to enhance the security and reliability of the module prior to its official deployment, ensuring a robust and trustworthy platform for all community members, researchers, and users.

CertiK is a globally recognized leader in blockchain security, with extensive expertise in auditing Cosmos SDK modules and smart contracts. By partnering with CertiK, we will receive expert insights and actionable recommendations to strengthen the x/bounty module against potential vulnerabilities.

Benefits of the Proposal

• Enhanced Security: CertiK’s thorough audit will identify and address risks of exploits or logic flaws in the mathematical proof system, protecting community assets and intellectual contributions.
• Increased Trust: A CertiK audit certification will boost confidence among users, mathematicians, and developers, fostering greater adoption of the x/bounty module for decentralized science applications.
• Long-Term Sustainability: Fortifying the security foundation of x/bounty ensures its dependability for future mathematical proof bounties, supporting the sustained growth of our chain as a hub for DeSci innovation.

We kindly request your vote in favor of allocating 165,000 CTK for the chain code audit of the x/bounty module by CertiK. Upon successful completion of the audit, the module will be deployed, enabling our community to engage in decentralized mathematical research with confidence.

Together, let’s secure the x/bounty module and build a trusted, cutting-edge platform for decentralized science.

Thank you for your support.
