Lightcone Commons completed its first grant round: 23 funders directed $45M in grants through the platform — more than double organizer Ohabryka's $20M projection. NathanpmYoung says about $5M of that came from his recommendations.
To meet demand, another round will run before year-end, followed by monthly rounds throughout 2027.
