Can you show us any links or documentation that Scuttlebutt is actually funded? Or as you put it, "a ton of funding". I believe the actual number is 0. Would be pleased to hear otherwise.

They recently received 200k from the Dfinity project

  Did they though? All I've been able to find related to this is a markdown document not updated in two months. The company mentioned to give the money, "Dfinity", has no mention of Scuttlebutt on their Twitter, Medium, or company website. I can only seem to find things related to the Dfinity token presale and airdrop, which I assume is an ICO. Scuttlebutt would greatly benefit from having a real source of funding. If anyone can provide proof Scuttlebutt is now funded please post it here.

    Most grant discussion has been going on over SSB in the #ssbc-grants channel. (It has over 1,400 messages that I can see)

    There is a regular recurring grant process: https://viewer.heropunch.io/channel/ssbc-grants?showAll https://viewer.heropunch.io/channel/ssbc-grants?showAll The grants issued this month are for client maintenance/features, hosted pubs, and on-boarding. FWIW, most SSB talk happens on SSB, and "Funded" has a very different meaning to the VC world.
