The funding rule of #[0] is that the code must be open source. It is to allow others to access the code, review the code, and distribute the code for free. But the Opensats board will not look at your project code or use your product. They don't use their own rules to review funding applications. They will only reject you based on a piece of GitHub statistical waste paper. This piece of waste paper does not belong to the funding rules. It doesn't matter even if you meet all the funding rules. They just want a piece of waste paper, not the built product and code.
If you like, you can use artificially created beautiful green waste paper to get funding. https://github.com/artiebits/fake-git-history
It doesn't matter what features and code your product has built, and it doesn't matter what users like. You can get funding with a piece of statistical waste paper.
This is not a proof of work for value exchange value, this is shitcoin behavior.
