X's video creator bonus is $500, not the viral $5,000 claim, screenshot shows

A viral post claimed X is offering $5,000 for posting 15 videos in 30 days to compete with YouTube, but a user's Creator Studio screenshot shows the actual Video Kickstart Bonus pays $500. Requirements: post original videos on at least 15 different days within a 30-day period, no performance threshold, videos posted elsewhere count if they're yours, and enrolling fast-tracks Original Content Rewards. Enrollment closes October 30.
