The bounty program underscores our commitment to security and quality, calling on developers and users to contribute to improving Electrum-Dime. By reporting issues, participants play an important role in enhancing the wallet’s security and functionality, ensuring a reliable and secure platform for managing Dimecoin.<h2 id="header-1">Availability</h2>Electrum-Dime will be available for most Windows, Linux, and Android users. We urge our community to verify the integrity of their downloads via our official GitHub repository using GnuPG (GPG). For those unsure how to verify via GPG, detailed instructions will be provided in the <a href="https://github.com/dime-coin/electrum-dimecoin/releases/tag/ElectrumDime-0.0.1.0%28beta%29" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Release Notes on GitHub</a>.

With a structured reward system based on the severity of the issues identified, our goal is to drive community engagement and be proactive with beta testing to ensure a smooth alpha release. Contributors who identify vulnerabilities and propose viable solutions will receive additional rewards, highlighting the value of collaborative problem-solving.Objective:To incentivize the discovery and reporting of bugs in the Electrum-Dime clients on Windows, Linux, and Android so we can enhance the overall security and user experience of using the application.Scope<ul><li>Bugs and vulnerabilities in the Electrum-Dime client software for Windows, Linux, and Android versions.</li><li>Issues must be previously unreported and unknown to the Dimecoin development team.</li><li>Security vulnerabilities, functional bugs, and critical performance issues.</li></ul>Out of Scope<ul><li>Issues in third-party libraries or dependencies not directly maintained by Dimecoin Developers, unless they directly affect the Electrum-Dime client.</li><li>Website, translations, or documentation errors.</li><li>Issues that have already been submitted by another user or are already known to the project team.</li></ul>RewardsRewards will be based on the severity of the reported issues.
