I had a pleasure to judge the @KuruExchange competition. Congratulations to all winners and big thanks to @AifosSi for being a professional co-judge! --- We had 1147 submissions. One thing I learned from this experience is that LLMs got much better. Good enough that you can't reject a finding with confidence after the first read, but bad enough for them to truly be valid. This means that if you're skilled, it's a great tool. If you're not, it can terribly increase the judging time.. Fortunately, I have high hopes it will get better soon, as some solutions are being worked on as we speak 👀 I'm happy to be a part of securing the @monad's CLOB!

@fair_value_guy @KuruExchange Yes yes you got it also as the duplicates increases the total point of that finding also decreases with some exponential like 0.9,

@Nicks_block @KuruExchange i see , so unique findings have greater rating while ppl share points if they found a duplicate vulnerabilitiy

@fair_value_guy @KuruExchange It is not all about high and medium it is also about the number of duplicates the findings has, so this one was a solo medium, so thats why

@Nicks_block @KuruExchange i don't understand this how does the ranking thing work exactly shouldn't high severity be ranked higher? or the ranking is different

@fair_value_guy @KuruExchange Thank you

@Nicks_block @KuruExchange also congrats
