But making SBF the face of the EA movement was a really bad decision. Especially given that he was unilaterally gambling with the whole EA movement’s credibility.
This might not be too big of a thing to flag, but my guess now is that SBF basically unilaterally decided to promote himself publicly as an EA, likely for marketing purposes.
That said, I think no one else pushed back too much (in part because he was one of the main funders), and that that shows a systematic failure, which is still pretty bad.
