£24,000 raised in less than 24 hours. I still can't quite believe it. 🤯 I started TensorFold in February 2026 and archived it three times because I couldn't get the idea to work. I worked on MCDMA in between, then finally cracked it and released TensorFold with Qwen 3.8 27B. I thought a few people might use it. Maybe I'd get the odd GitHub star. When the 512GB M5 Ultra Mac Studio became available, I ordered one. Then my loan fell through because the bank wouldn't accept my X income as regular income. I thought I'd have to cancel and admit defeat, but you guys didn't. More than two dozen
