I stand by this. Thanks for putting it out. In my personal case what i will develop is not worthy of a big grant but sometimes just enough funding so that you can tell your family hey, i worked some extra hours but we can go out to a nice dinner or go on vacation this weekend thanks to that, and also as a signal to just keep going as a small incentive and know that people are aware of your contributions to the space. Either way, i will build no matter what even if it's just for myself.

I think I might be doing some work worthy of a grant.

But I actually don't know, as there's only one of me (so, no other data point) and no one has ever spoken with me about it or suggested it to me. I didn't even seriously consider it as a possibility, until now.

The stuff I'm best at is analysis of very large, complex systems with many intertwining processes and disparate actors. Which means Nostr at large, not just one particular client or even one particular project.

The scope of my work is so broad and high-level, that I just aim it at the entire audience and hope someone finds some meaning in it. It's too difficult to explain and quantify, to be able to fit it into five fields on a webform.

"Give me money because I will be smart in public. But I will continue to be smart in public, even if you don't give me any money because I care more about Nostr than about the money. Please zap."
