Entities
115 entities in the ledger: 9 lab, 27 evaluator, 18 funder, 23 investor, 5 intermediary, 3 daf, 3 public, 27 person. Distance 0 is a lab; 1 a direct tie; higher runs through principals and funders. Each page shows every row in and out and the funding graph focused on that node. People are recorded by public role only, and everyone the bench publishes a score-affecting claim about receives their card before a tag is cut (RULES 12).
