• PGPZ's lobbying agenda includes the CLARITY Act / Digital Asset Market Clarity Act and digital asset tax policy.
• Paul Brigner and ZODL are connected to the earlier groundwork or founding of the PGPZ effort.

What would settle it: Zcash Community Grants' official grant records or disbursement announcement

What to make of it

Treat the existence of PGPZ's lobbyist registration and the $750,000 figure as established, but do not treat the grant as confirmed funded or still pending until Zcash Community Grants' own records are checked.
