The record claims a budget of $16,000,000, but the source explicitly states the combined Speculation Grants budget across all Speculators is 'approximately $20MM'. The name and status (open) are confirmed, but the budget figure contradicts the source. The $20MM figure appears multiple times in the source text and is presented as current information (last updated February 28th, 2025). The claimed $16MM does not fall within a reasonable margin of error from $20MM (~20% discrepancy).
