I should have about $400 million left after exchange fees. (And, of course, market impact, which it would be ridiculous not to consider.) However, this estimate might be off since I do not have access to much of my data and the money is spread across multiple wallets some of which are poorly labelled.
I know many charities and EA groups are nervous about accepting crypto donations, especially after the unfortunate bank run on FTX. Still, I'm sure some will, especially since top EA leaders vouch for me. But which? I'm looking for places with a more longtermist mindset since I consider neartermist causes—global health and poverty—to be more emotionally driven.
The request is time sensitive as I need to spend this by October at the latest.
(PS. Please excuse any typos, I had less than 5 minutes to write and post this.)
Fund legal defense for crypto innovators. Crypto is the greatest engine for EA growth that has ever been conceived, maybe the greatest engine that could be conceived. Now the anti-EA cabal has convinced the US Government to target crypto as a way to take down EA. Make no mistake, if they succeed, the next front in their war against EA will be an assault on other major engines like social-media sites and project-management software.
Whether the cabal is funded by Big AI, Big Chicken, or Big Malaria is irrelevant. It must be stopped at all costs -- although you should try legal defense before advocating for conventional or especially nuclear bombings.
We can stop Big Chicken with Big Fox. Big Malaria can be prevented with Big Net.
