What if we have something set up where I do hangouts with people who are hurt by bugs. Since it is generally the people who are hurt by bugs who are the first to know about them, we could pay them for finding the bug from a portion of the 432,000BTS/day that can be put into funding projects? Of course, there would need to be some way to verify they have been hurt by the bug to receive over a certain amount of funding...which, like you said, would be something we'd have to think about more deeply.
People who find bugs are performing a very important role...so if someone is hurt by a bug and brings it to the community's attention they should be able to get a little bit of funding. Maybe even have it set up so the people who find bugs and are not hurt by them can receive a reward. I would personally be happy to help incentivize them to donate a portion of the proceeds from their reward to a pool of funds like this...by creating little public announcements in the Beyond Bitcoin (BTS) hangouts we post, and credit the people who find said bugs--but only if they donate above a certain threshold.
Thoughts?
