I think the âAlready working on EA jobs /â projects that can be done from the Bahamasâ is the answer here. To my read, this isnât trying to fully fund someoneâs work, but rather to incentivize someone to do the work from the Bahamas . If you were self-funding a project from savings, this doesnât suddenly provide you a full salary, but it still probably looks very good as it could potentially eliminate your cash burn.
If itâs an EA project and you need support, Iâd apply to EA Funds, and tell FTX that youâre interested and say youâre still seeking funding. Even if they have the money, they also arenât throwing cash at anything that movesâand FTX isnât the best placed group to evaluate EA projects. And Iâd note that EA funds also arenât particularly funding constrainedâbut if they were, it would make more sense for FTX to give them money instead of trying to evaluate projects and fund people directly.

Sure, but âalready working on an EA projectâ doesnât mean you have an employer.
