Still a few weeks behind but continue to catch up...
On Oct 5, we made the SIXTH distribution from the project's DEVELOPMENT FUND, which is intended to reward our contributors for their work. You can find the transaction here:

A total of 0.2005 bitcoin were distributed in a combination of ongoing and one-time payments. Any time we make a distribution from this fund, I make sure to post about it so that people who have donated, or who may donate, can see how the funds are being used.
We utilize an cumulative point system whereby ongoing, regular contributors are awarded points for significant contributions to the project. These points are carried forward and entitle these contributors to funds from future distributions as well.
One time grants are also made for contributions that may be less substantive but have still moved the needle for a given release.
Details on the specific PRs that were contributed by each of the above individuals can be viewed in the 0.7.0 release notes (github.com) but in the following tweets I will briefly describe each contributor's work.

After this distribution, the current on-chain balance in the development fund stands at ~0.25 bitcoin (with an additional ~4 mil sats and ~$2k on account with @OpenSats).
While our contributors don't work on SeedSigner in expectation of compensation, this fund allows our users and the larger bitcoin community to express v4v gratitude for the work they do. If you would like contribute you can do so at:

Thank you for your support everyone, what a crazy ride this has been for myself and our contributors so far!!!
