CONTRIBUTING.md, Claiming a Reward section (~line 41): "To claim, email bugs@apn.tech from the address tied to your report, and include your USDT (ERC-20) wallet address."
GitHub issues do not expose or store the reporter's email address. A reporter reading this instruction cannot determine which email "tied to your report" refers to — the primary email on their GitHub account, a secondary email, or any address they choose. A mismatch between the email the reporter sends from and whatever address the maintainer expects will silently reject the claim with no actionable error.
Fix CONTRIBUTING.md line 41: change the phrase to "from the email address registered to your GitHub account", or add an explicit step asking each reporter to include their claim email in the issue body at the time of filing.
