Who funds FUTO?


Eron Wolf.

From https://futo.org/what-is-futo/

> The time has come for a new organization wholly dedicated to solving this problem and giving people back control over their technology. That organization is FUTO, founded in 2021 by 18-year Silicon Valley veteran, programmer/founder of Yahoo! Games, and WhatsApp seed investor Eron Wolf.

Louis Rossmann is involved with FUTO and interviewed him here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJqoAPGSmfc


Yeah, that's a good question.. If it was philantrophy, wouldn't the one funding it want at least some publicity? When I see companies that are "magically funded" like this there's always one thing that comes to my mind - a nation state.


A nation state funding an AGPL code base is honestly awesome ;)

Anyway there are billionaires that have more money than entire nation states.
