Source Check Verdicts
Last checked: 4/9/2026
The source confirms the amount ($237,365) and the funder (Manifund) and project name (Lightcone Infrastructure), but the record describes this as 'Manifund -> Oliver Habryka' implying a direct grant to Habryka as grantee. The source shows this as a Manifund project page where Habryka is the project lead seeking donations, not as a completed grant with a specific date. The claimed date of 2024-05-08 is not mentioned in the source text. The source is from a 2026 archive capture discussing 2025 finances, making it temporally misaligned with a claimed 2024-05-08 grant date. Without explicit confirmation of the grant date and the grantee relationship, this cannot be fully verified.
