I’m calling bullshit on this. Grants should go to a wide range of projects based on their potential impact on Nostr overall. Low probability ideas that could have massive impact are exactly the types of things we should make space for. All progress happens on the margins.

Idea guys should have skin in the game. Getting a grant based on an idea alone is throwing shit against the wall. Imagine satoshi going around asking for a grant to make bitcoin.
Can you give us a history lesson about ONOSENDAI? Can you document the "idea phase" to its production? Why do you assume arkinox had no skin in the game? I doubt he conjured up all of this after receiving the grant. It seems pretty thorough to be an afterthought. "Imagine Satoshi" blah blah blah. Where's your idea? Where's your project? Builders are only looking at one thing in this space. I can imagine OS looks through a similar lens.
