We would like to be very clear... EOS New York in no way has accepted outside funding from anyone. We are completely self funded because we do not ever want to have what's best for the network and the community conflict with a VC who's expecting an ROI. If we were to ever take outside funding we would make that extremely public as we never want there to be a conflict of interest.
Edit: To be even more clear there is no one other than the founding team that legally owns any part of the organization or is entitled to anything at all.
