The map is honest about its own limits, but its arithmetic is only as wide as the public counters it was built from: 15 projects and 4.91 BTC is a sample of what is tracked, so a top-5 share of 69.4% describes that counter, not the fund behind it. Two things would make the claim falsifiable rather than plausible - a fixed window compared line by line against OpenSats' own published payout lists, and a count of recipients by human instead of by project name, because one person appearing under four labels moves concentration without any money moving. Unknown is not zero in either direction: every grant with no public amount shrinks the denominator and quietly makes the visible projects look larger than they are.
