This is like 1/10th of what a good blackhat hacker would have gotten out of it.

I always wonder what's stopping security researchers from selling these exploits to Blackhat marketplaces, getting the money, waiting a bit, then telling the original company, so they end up patching it.

Probably break some contractual agreements, but if you're doing this as a career surely you'd know how to hide your identity properly.
