FAQ

The questions people ask first.

Do I need tokens to contribute?

No. Anyone can run a session and watch their contribution for free. A wallet and a small stake only matter when you want to collect rewards, and new operators can receive delegated starter stake, so you never have to buy anything to find out whether you like it.

Is this affiliated with Robinhood?

No. Bonsai is an independent project that deploys on Robinhood Chain, an EVM-compatible network. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by Robinhood Markets.

What stops someone from faking results?

Every interesting result is re-run in a verification environment we control before it affects rewards. A crash needs three independent reproductions. Operators who submit fabricated telemetry lose their stake, which is what the stake is for.

Can I see a real vulnerability being found?

Launch demonstrations use deliberately seeded educational targets, not real day-one vulnerabilities. Real findings stay private until they are fixed, then appear in the archive. We do not stage a fake discovery of a real bug.

Where is the code?

$BONSAI launches through a launchpad. The token and campaign addresses are published at launch, and you can check them on the Robinhood Chain explorer.
