Am I really doing it? I can't believe in a few months I could come this far. After my 1st 5 digits payout from @immunefi I managed to get 1st place in the CodeHaws @beanstalkmoney contest. Let's keep it up! 👨🏻💻

It seems the OpenAI Daybreak Blue model is just the same Gpt 5.6 with the same safeguards, just rebranded as the "fewer restrictions" model. At this point, Daybreak Red is the only option, but unfortunately, independent SRs can't apply for it. Can we? @OpenAI @thsottiaux
FYI: This is a North Korean approaching several SRs to do the classic "here's the link for the interview".

So in case he approaches you on Telegram or LinkedIn, you already know. :)
Be careful out there, folks.
Security researchers still grinding the same way they did last year are getting cooked.
The criticals in BBPs and contests keep getting taken by people running proper AI harnesses.
The old manual-only approach is dead. Adapt or start starving. Simple as that.
It ain't much, but it's honest work lol
I just found a bug and got paid on @immunefi #immunefitribe immunefi.com/s/ss/?severity=…
Harness is a hot topic for audit agents rn.
One tip: encode your manual audit approach deterministically and let it guide the LLM, not the reverse.
Review how you audit by hand, then build the pipeline to work like you. You’re halfway there. 🫡
Locked in these past two months hunting tough BBPs, found some interesting bugs. Real highlight though: pushed my AI game further and built my own agentic AI auditor. It’s already bagged 1 crit + 1 high. Hyped for what’s next.
in C4 I wrote my first finding.
in C4 I landed my first med.
in C4 I became an SR.
forever grateful. gg. 🫡
1st bug since going full-time on BBPs. More queued up, awaiting confirmation.
I just found a confirmed bug on @immunefi #immunefitribe immunefi.com/s/ss/?severity=…
Feels good to be back after a long break. Going all-in on BBPs this year(can't wait to compete with AI lol).
