Software security researcher Guido Vranken had an incredible week this month - he discovered 12 vulnerabilities in the EOS software.
Using the HackerOne Rewards platform, the developer of EOS Block.one launched a bug bonus program to improve the product on May 31, 2018, and Vranken took full advantage of it. At the time of writing, HackerOne shows that Vranken has won a total of $ 90,000, but he wrote on Twitter that the final number will be $ 120,000 once the scoring updates.
EOS is still updating the hacker activity and has already thanked him and another hacker. The basic amount to find a bug in the software is currently $ 10,000. According to the ZDNet technology information website, the EOS team members were impressed by Vranken's work and offered him a permanent job. However, it has not been confirmed whether he accepted the role or not.

Vranken has successfully discovered a total of 92 software bugs in companies such as Twitter, Tor, OpenSSL, Dropbox, Python, Yahoo!, Slack, Trello and HackerOne. He has done this work since 2014 and occasionally presents the details on his official website.
The EOS price is close to $ 14
Meanwhile, EOS completed its ICO on June 1, 2017, almost a year after its launch. A serious security breach was discovered shortly before the mainnet software release date, but the developers fixed the code in time to ship the code on time. Nevertheless, users are still waiting for a consensus to form around a MainNet launch group.
After raising a total of $ 4 billion in the ICO, the EOS MainNet EOSIO 1.0 software was finally launched on June 2, 2017. With a market capitalization of $ 12.3 billion, the price began to show signs improvement. It is now valued at $ 14 and is listed on stock exchanges such as Huobi, OKEx, Bithumb, Bitfinex and Binance.
On June 4, CCN reported that approximately 50% of the total EOS chips are held by 10 different addresses. In-depth analysis of the distribution of these tokens was presented by a Reddit user. Block.one owns 10% of these tokens, which are listed as "Founder Tokens" on the website. To be in the Top 100 list, users need at least 646,595 tokens in their addresses.
