All I see is self-indulgent hype and pampered rich people (not that there’s anything wrong with that when they are giving away something). Where are the entry rules ?
Why could Dennis Craven’s not enter and possibly win it with a new version of the NI-Week demo? From: Kevin O'Malley I wish this would have happened in time for me to win the FQXI Essay contest.

The prize will pay 20 million to the winner if the conditions are met. I find it encouraging that this prize was put together. It suggests to me that there is some receptivity to cold fusion in the larger public beyond the people who follow the usual sites and lists. Eric
