Pretty hilarious to see all these comments from people who have no idea what they are talking about.
Thinking $5m is a "high" ransom, thinking that there is no way they would send a decryption binary rather than a key.
Why don't you just actually research how these schemes function before commenting? The team that did this has a pretty consistent MO and five million was a massive discount.
