Patience. Obviously the comms could be better but it takes a long time to go thru and vet the massive inbound that orgs like OpenSats get. OpenSats also need to have board majority to approve a grant so it will take time. Consider putting in multiple grant apps as well so you are not reliant on 1 orgs process.

It's been two months since I applied for an OpenSats grant for chachi and I haven't heard back so I guess no news is bad news :Sadge: Probably one of the reasons is that they've funded a few NIP-29 projects already (0xChat, Flotilla, groups, that one nostr:npub1zfss807aer0j26mwp2la0ume0jqde3823rmu97ra6sgyyg956e0s6xw445 was working on can't remember the name) and the field is a bit saturated. Or maybe my project sucks lol. I'll keep shipping anyway and find a way to make it sustainable, I'm bullish af on NIP-29 specially with goats like nostr:npub149p5act9a5qm9p47elp8w8h3wpwn2d7s2xecw2ygnrxqp4wgsklq9g722q and nostr:npub1wf4pufsucer5va8g9p0rj5dnhvfeh6d8w0g6eayaep5dhps6rsgs43dgh9 entering the game.

Agree, they must be swamped with applications so it's to be expected. Thanks for the heads up on the HRF development fund, I'm definitely applying to this one!
