John Anthony Castro, of whom almost nobody has previously heard, has made it his mission to challenge Trump’s name appearing on the ballot in 17 states. According to the FEC, he has $678 in his war chest. Who, then, is bankrolling these lawsuits?

No one is funding them. All his cases are being filed pro se (without aid of an attorney). His only cost, therefore, is the cost of postage.
That's one reason they're all being dismissed.
Even the Left don't want anything to do with him. He's actually doing their cause more harm than good. See (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Anthony_Castro):
--> "Castro prosecuted his lawsuits independently, without support from constitutional scholars. Described by media as "bizarre," "quixotic," and as "a plea for attention," they were distinct from what CNN characterized as "more serious" efforts to disqualify Trump under the 14th Amendment brought by CREW and others. In analyzing the impact of Castro's cases on the 2024 election, The Economist noted that while "more credible plaintiffs are bringing challenges that force judges to reckon with uncomfortable questions of constitutional law," Castro's lawsuits made "little headway with judges." Antjuan Seawright, a Democratic Party strategist in South Carolina, stated that he felt Castro's lawsuit in that state would "go nowhere." Derek Mueller, a scholar of election law at Notre Dame Law School, observed that Castro's "poorly litigated cases" may have actually aided Trump's efforts to insulate himself against possible disqualification because "plaintiffs with poor legal arguments [can] create adverse precedent and sometimes bad legal holdings." Subsequently, Chris Giunchigliani, a Democrat and former member of the Clark County Commission, filed an amicus curiae brief calling for the dismissal of Castro's lawsuit in Nevada because the Castro case was "no way to decide highly consequential constitutional questions." <---

After reading Castro's Wikipedia article it seems like he's a fabulist. I'd be careful about assuming his grandstanding about being a multimillionaire is anything other than empty chatter. Multimillionaires don't have to represent pro bono, charity lawyers to represent them when they get sued. They also don't fall behind $53,000 in arrears to American Express ---

A federal court of appeals last week rejected John Anthony Castro's lawsuit against the IRS Criminal Investigations Division. Castro sued the IRS alleging that a special agent of IRS-CI violated his privacy rights during an ongoing "criminal investigation into Castro." (https://casetext.com/case/castro-v-united-states-108)
