 HRF’s Bitcoin Development Fund has made several grants to JoinMarket projects and contributors

Now would be a *great* time to apply for funding to do this kind of work!

Feel free to DM me if you need the link to apply

 Thanks for supporting freedom tech

 Jam is awesome!

 Decentralization of the coinjoin protocols is important. LFG!

 Doesn't HRF require grantees to KYC in front of them? That's what I've heard and if true then it could be considered a trap as in the future contributing to bitcoin privacy preserving software may be deemed as ML. I've heard about JAM grantees who rejected the money and that was one of the reasons they did.

 Yes. Of course. We are a legal entity. We are happy to explore donating to a collective or association or donating the grant to a mutually favorable charity etc.

 Thanks for answering! The space definitely also needs devs with digital-only identity and good opsec who are directly supported by users of their decentralised software.
