7/ Stay tuned for new developments as more tracks are completed for the upcoming Mina mainnet upgrade!

The next step is to launch Track 3 - TestWorld 2.0 once all fixes are implemented.

Let's join forces to bring programmable privacy to Mina, the first ZK-native blockchain. ⚡️

6/ Fuzzing, meant to improve security & stability by @viable_systems, has already led to the identification & fixing of a critical issue.

Mina ecosystem engineers are now expanding its scope to include testing of other areas, specifically zkApps.

5/ Mina’s proof system, Kimchi, underwent a review conducted by @class_lambda. No major issues were discovered during the review. 🥬

3/ Granola Systems also focused on uncovering new vulnerabilities through added coverage areas such as Incentivized Testnet (ITN) Security, zkApps audits, SnarkyJS bug hunts, and Kimchi bug hunts

Minor bugs were found and promptly addressed during review of these new areas 🛠

2/ Ecosystem partner Granola Systems completed a comprehensive review from multiple sources including private and public repositories, the @Hacker0x01 bug bounty program, and an internal audit.

Their efforts went a long way in identifying and fixing existing vulnerabilities ​​💪

1/ Another step closer to Mina’s upcoming mainnet upgrade - Track 2 (External Security Auditing) is now closed!
