Quite agree on this one. It’s hard to “ask” when the amount is big. On Taylor in particular, imo, he should get 3m$ for his disclosure and integrity. And would show implicitly zcash rewards industry standard even without explicit bounty program. He seemed to be aligned on such reward before his findings, on the bug bounty programs threads.

> Yeah, inflation bugs are severe enough, specific enough, and hopefully rare enough, that these higher awards are warranted.
