AWS organizes a crowdsourced contest that defines small verification goals for the Rust standard library, posts challenges with success criteria, and awards cash bounties up to $40,000 for new tools. There are four verification tools already able to handle the library, seven challenges solved, and 37% of the library covered by formal contracts and proofs. The program reports 121 contributors in the last month, multiple bug fixes merged into core, and reusable models emerging from Verifast, Flux, ESBMC and others.
