It's 10K and the product is real. 10K (in XC! not USD) is not a huge load of money for a dev with a working product.
That said, I'm starting to question why we'd go to the effort when comments like this are being made.
i think it's best to pm the dev with your idea, i also think it would be best for the dev to hold the bounty address until it is reached, if you are sincere thank you for your help, there are a lot of scammers on this forum and in the crytpo world i'm sure you understand peoples cation, i think your idea is great, but it has to be discussed with the dev.
