Hack a Nexus phone and get $200,000

Google just announced the prize for hacking their Nexus 5X or Nexus 6P.

Contest Structure
This contest will be structured a bit differently than other contests. Instead of saving up bugs until there’s an entire bug chain, and then submitting it to the Project Zero Prize, participants are asked to report the bugs in the Android issue tracker. They can then be used as a part of submission by the participant any time during the six month contest period. Only the first person to file a bug can use it as a part of their submission, so file early and file often! Of course, any bugs that don’t end up being used in a submission will be considered for Android Security Rewards and any other rewards program at Google they might be eligible for after the contest has ended.
In addition, unlike other contests, the public sharing of vulnerabilities and exploits submitted is paramount. Participants will submit a full description of how their exploit works with their submission, which will eventually be published on the Project Zero blog. Every vulnerability and exploit technique used in each winning submission will be made public.
