By default we ask for about 0.05USD. With this amount network fees are the
concern. It's fun to send a ping that carries money.

I usually send big transactions myself. I trust my code and if the VPS is
compromised it is my fault.

I think somebody tried checking if we were honest (or at least, not
compromised).
He or she started small and scaled until 0.9BTC. That was very fun to watch.
