Oracles Network Challenge Campaign (Wild Card) - 20%

This is a wild card: we look for resourcefulness, elegant solutions, interesting ideas and beyond.
At Oracles Network, we strongly support the open source culture and we believe that the most innovative use cases can come from the community members. We want to empower the blockchain community to articulate and execute the ideas of implementing Oracles Network. This is about unleashing true power of decentralization.
Oracles Network Challenge involves BOTH solving tasks we will periodically share and coming up with your own ideas. The tasks will be announced for the pool participants, and contributions to solving these tasks will be evaluated on the case-by-case basis. Stay tuned for those!
The ideas will be assessed if they are sufficiently developed and well articulated.

Here are directions they may take:

mockup/ prototype of a DApp built on top of Oracles Network;
development of a new, not yet explored use-case;
deployment of a project/smart contract based on Oracles Network;
development and execution of ideas to strengthen Oracles Network community

Every contribution or project will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis and thus, there is no maximum numbers of stakes per person

Bug Bounty Pool - 15%

We believe in the power of the community to help us make Oracles Network as robust as possible. Thats why 15% of the total bounty pool will be dedicated to finding bugs and reporting the scam attempts. There is no limit for the number of stakes per bug, since this very much depends on the complexity of the issue found. The person submitting the bug also has to provide some more direct indication on where he / she thinks the issue lies and how it could be fixed.
We will reward those who discovered and reported serious bugs/vulnerabilities significantly more. You will have an opportunity to work with the team discussing, reviewing, and fixing those issues.

In case no bugs are detected, the named 15% go to the Oracles Network Wild Card bounty pool.
