I found [this post](https://askubuntu.com/questions/1038553/how-to-create-launchpad-ppa-from-ubuntu-binary). The OP states:

> A 30k Geek (GeekCash) reward is given to you after the job is complete.

I wasn't sure what this meant, so I commented:

> What does "What does a 30k Geek (GeekCash) reward is given to you after the job is complete mean?

The user replied with:

> Yes, you can download GeekCash Wallet at geekcash.org/#wallets and create a wallet address, after that I send coin to your address.

This confirms my suspicions. GeekCash is a cryptocurrency. **The user is offering real money in return for a solution.**

As [these](https://meta.askubuntu.com/questions/6291/is-it-allowed-to-offer-something-not-a-bounty-in-exchange-for-an-answer) [three](https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/42767/should-i-edit-out-an-offer-of-financial-reward) [posts](https://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/29008/how-do-you-respond-when-someone-offers-to-pay-you-on-so) (well not so much the last one but the first two anyway) say that **this is not OK**. Please could we have this edited out/deleted/something else to nuke this _real money_ business?
