'''Where does the money come from?'''

Proposed answer: the announced sums come from an initial fund provided by the founder of the project (see the [[Gov/en/Portal:Meta/Licensing-and-Credits|credits page]]). This initial fund is intended to be progressively reimbursed by the first subscriptions, through the Rewards mechanism, and by donations made against Rewards (no guarantee). In other words: the founder advances the money so that the open calls can start before the platform has revenue, and the community model would gradually take over. None of this constitutes a financial promise.
