Cardano Founder Launches $1 Million Challenge
In a recent post on the X platform, Charles Hoskinson announced the Lace Paper Wallet Bug Bounty Program. This initiative is a step towards enhancing the security features of the Lace Wallet, a product developed under the Cardano blockchain ecosystem. The challenge, open until the end of 2024 or until someone succeeds in hacking the wallet, invites tech enthusiasts and developers to prove their skills by breaching the wallet’s security.
Charles invited the community to try the challenge, tweeting, “If you can hack it, you can keep it.” “One million dollars.”
Details of the Lace Paper Wallet
The Lace Paper Wallet integrates advanced encryption and a user-friendly interface to give users a robust security option. It allows users to restore access to their funds using a single encrypted QR code. This new feature aims to simplify security for users, even as it strengthens it by requiring physical possession of the QR code for access.

Security and Innovation
The announcement was made at the Rare Evo 2024 event, where Cardano’s scaling solutions were also showcased. The event highlighted innovations such as Hydra, which demonstrated its capabilities by processing transactions using frames from the classic game Doom.
Moreover, the platform has been at the forefront of blockchain innovation, with its development team rolling out continuous updates to enhance platform capabilities. This development coincides with the Cardano Community’s efforts to boost visibility for their informal chain meme, SNEK.
Earlier this month, the platform introduced the alpha v1 update to integrate partner chains more securely into the network.
The Alpha v1 allows developers to engage with Cardano’s stake pool operators (SPOs) in a shared security model, simplifying the process for validators to join and contribute to the network.
Additionally, the rollout is a strategy to adapt to the increasing demands of blockchain applications and ensure that the platform remains at the forefront of blockchain innovation. The integration of partner chains through alpha v1 is expected to enhance the security and operational efficiency of the network.
At press time, Cardano price experienced a notable surge over the past 24 hours, climbing to $0.3354, representing a 1.07% increase. Although the market cap has grown by 1.08% to $12,05 billion, trading volume has decreased by 59.04%, totaling $162.85 million.
