Well, we want something expensive to discourage people. How about we make it $100, or you can solve a problem in Lisp. Alternatives for both the cash-poor and time-poor.

To solve the 'third wold' problem, decrease the cost to activate the account to $1 and allow members to activate other peoples accounts. So hackers in developing countries could ask their western friends to help.
