After on the first day participants received $225,000 for demonstrating zero-day exploit chains against the iPhone X, Samsung Galaxy S9 and Xiaomi Mi 6, on the second day only $100,000 was paid out by organizers for one iPhone and two Xiaomi hacks.

The same team also attempted to demonstrate a baseband exploit targeting the iPhone X, which would have been a first, but they failed to get their exploit chain to work within the allotted time.

Of the total of $325,000 paid out at Pwn2Own Tokyo for 18 zero-days, $110,000 was for iPhone X exploits. These are serious vulnerabilities that can allow malicious actors to take control of a phone via its browser or Wi-Fi.
