This year, we updated the MVR leaderboard to rank researchers based on total bounty awards, creating a clearer connection between recognition and security impact. We also introduced Special Mentions to recognize researchers who submitted valid vulnerability reports during the recognition period, regardless of leaderboard ranking.
