"The best stories require the greatest skepticism."

Derek Thompson, American podcaster and journalist

The Capellino Foundation joined the project in June 2023 and suspended its membership in December 2023 by paying the sum of €252,000. It maintained a dialogue with the Instituto Black Jaguar aimed at seeing if the basis for resuming support existed but, lacking these, despite itself finally discontinued in June 2025.
