If the model isn’t worth the cost for those who might want to make use of it, then it can’t be that impactful either.
One thing to compare to would be what’s been paid for bug bounties in the past.

We've had such models before. GPT Pro, Gemini DeepThink. Mostly targeting science advancements as opposed to security research, but still, in a way Mythos is just more of the same.
Bug bounties don't reflect the market impact of the vulnerability though, just the amount needed to incentivize white hats to do research they wouldn't otherwise (or that they would target to other platforms that pay higher bounties). You need to look at market prices for zero days on the black market to get closer.
Bug bounties reflect what companies are willing to pay to find bugs. Mythos would have to be more expensive than that (probably considerably so) to not be worth its cost. If you are saying that finding bugs has significantly more value than reflected by bug bounties, then that strengthens my point.
