I understand.
IMHO, it's a different situation than a remote worker that want to lead and take more responsibilities.
It is more similar to an hourly worker that want to move to a full time role.
I think you should do two things:
1. Share with your direct contact that you see your future in the company and want to have a full time remote position with the company. Being clear/communicative is very important.
2. Give them more value in the first 100 hours than they paid for. It will show a higher margin on value for cost for you. Something that will be harder to check later on when you're a full time employee.
Try to understand what did they want to gain from the bank of 100 hours, and over achieve it.
