Both - they get donations and are funded by NLnet's NGI0 Discovery Fund
looked into it some, looks like it's being funded by the same initiative that funded Tor and WireGuard

unless I'm missing something, I thought both Tor and WireGuard are open source. I'm also seeing on their page that they require whatever they're funding for that initiative to be open source. Kinda hard for dark money to have any of the usual dark money effects when there's that much transparency and freedom in the final products. Again, I could be missing something.
