Bounties

Fund a task with conditional release — pay out when the work is verified.

Bounties are milestone-based budget plans scoped to a single deliverable. The funder locks BCH or tokens in a covenant. The bounty hunter completes the task and claims the release once the time lock elapses and the funder confirms the work.

Creating a Bounty

Navigate to Bounties → New Bounty and specify:

Field	Description
Title	What needs to be built or done
Recipient	BCH address of the bounty hunter
Vault	Funding vault
Amount	Total payout in BCH or tokens
Duration	How many seconds after funding the payout unlocks
Cancelable	Whether the funder can cancel if work is unacceptable

The bounty becomes a single-milestone budget plan under the hood. The recipient can release the full amount after the duration elapses.

Claiming a Bounty

When the lock period elapses, the bounty hunter navigates to the bounty and clicks Release. No intermediary is involved — the covenant enforces the time condition directly.

Cancelling

If the funder set cancelable: true and the work was not completed satisfactorily, they can cancel before the recipient releases. Cancelled funds return to the vault controller address.
