ohy··on Sei pays out $2M bug bounty
For whom it seems surprising, that's actually rather small, considering hacks can end up in an irreversible $100M+ transfer to the malicious party.

You can check Immunefi's Bounty-Board for reference, currently paying up to $15M per find.

Another good source is rekt.news, creating post-mortems about all the DEFI-hacks and an own leaderboard, $624M for #1.

True, but you can customise it a lot. So the number of UI elements is not a problem.
ohy··on Ask HN: Comment here about whatever you're passionate about at the moment
One of them is an app I'd like to build for my galaxy watch that lets me enter data on the go, that is going to be synced with my notion database. This would be super useful for habit tracking.

*this one seems to be one of the more feasible ideas

Maybe something like ENS?
ohy··on Ask HN: Comment here about whatever you're passionate about at the moment
Hello from Berlin, Germany. Currently spending my days mostly learning for exams and doing homework. I hate every second of it. Not because I'm opposed to learning stuff. But because I just think other topics are way more interesting and useful for me in the future. Every time I sit there and try to memorize something that I really don't see any value in, I feel such a loss of a lifetime. I just think of all the things I could do instead... (theoretically I could drop out, but I don't have the courage right now)

Honestly, I'm passionate about all those fun little niche coding projects I have written in my notebook and want to work on. But I don't really have the time to develop my beginner-skills to the extent I would like to, for me being able to build them.

If anyone is in a situation where he has uniquely more than average free time. Please use this time to develop a skill, you'll be grateful for it, I can guarantee.

ohy··on Ask HN: Why is Hacker News so anti-crypto?
I didn't claim you said it, either, just wanted to mention why it can still make sense. However, the process of depositing something as collateral (irrelevant of the value) and borrowing on it can be described as just that, borrowing.

There is still use for that if the asset you deposit is:

a) expected to appreciate in value b) yield-bearing itself

and you don't want to sell it.
