Closes #100

📋 Overview

This PR implements a comprehensive automated bug bounty payout engine for Nebula Nomad smart contracts, featuring multi-sig approvals, timelock security, and severity-based reward distribution.

🎯 What Was Implemented

1. Core Module (src/bug_bounty_payout.rs)

520+ lines of production code including:

  • Bug Report Submission - submit_bug_report()

    • Severity classification (Critical/High/Medium/Low)
    • Reporter tracking
    • Event emission
  • Multi-Sig Approval - approve_bounty()

    • Requires 2+ admin approvals
    • Prevents double approvals
    • Tracks approver list
  • Timelock Mechanism

    • High-value bounties (≥100K) require 48-hour delay
    • Automatic unlock after timelock expires
    • Enhanced security for large payouts
  • Bounty Payout - pay_bounty()

    • Multi-sig validation
    • Timelock verification
    • Pool balance deduction
    • Event emission
  • Pool Management

    • fund_pool() - Add funds
    • get_pool_balance() - Check balance
    • Automatic reward distribution
  • Emergency Controls

    • emergency_pause() - Halt all operations
    • Integration with existing emergency controls

2. Test Suite (tests/test_bug_bounty_payout.rs)

260+ lines of tests with 15+ test cases:

  • ✅ Initialization tests
  • ✅ Bug report submission tests
  • ✅ Multi-sig approval tests
  • ✅ High-value timelock tests
  • ✅ Batch operations tests
  • ✅ Pool management tests
  • ✅ Emergency pause tests
  • ✅ Error handling tests
  • ✅ Edge case coverage

3. Documentation (docs/BUG_BOUNTY_PAYOUT.md)

200+ lines of documentation including:

  • ✅ Architecture overview
  • ✅ API reference with examples
  • ✅ Event specifications
  • ✅ Error handling guide
  • ✅ Security considerations
  • ✅ Usage examples
  • ✅ Configuration guide

4. Integration (src/lib.rs)

  • ✅ Module import
  • ✅ Public API exports
  • ✅ Type exports

💰 Reward Tiers

Severity Min Reward Max Reward
Critical 500,000 1,000,000,000
High 100,000 500,000
Medium 10,000 100,000
Low 1,000 10,000

🔒 Security Features

    • Requires 2+ admin approvals
    • Prevents single-point-of-failure
    • Tracks all approvers
  2. High-Value Timelock

    • Bounties ≥100K require 48-hour delay
