I like conspiracy theories, but an economic one is more probable than a political governmental affair. I think Coinbase and Binance may did something in the no-law-only-code world of crypto, but the target was FTX, a very visible competitor; the funds for EA activities were just collateral damage. To mitigate risks like that, EA aligned organizations should not rely on single source for funding.

I think you’re overestimating how high EA-org-salary spending is compared to (remaining) total EA funding per year (in the neighborhood of 10%?)
