Counts as of 2026-06-15 (last data edit). Pace recomputes on every deploy. Source of truth: the grant forum thread.

The numbers come from one file, src/data/grant.json. After each event, office-hours session, wallet-activation batch, or merchant install, edit the current count and redeploy. Pace recomputes automatically from today’s date against the program window.
