From my side this is already under construction: Running NuBot on a RaspberryPi with Raspbian
As soon as the wrapper for hitBTC is finished I’ll start a test run on the exchange.
Expect some USD value to be in the order book once I feel confident of running NuBot on hitBTC 
I haven’t thought about the details of the grant, but that can wait until I know that I’m able to run NuBot there.
edit: the first test deposits at my hitbtc account have been executed
