Strongly disagree about betting and prediction markets being useful for this; strongly agree about there being a spectrum here, where at different points the question “how do we decide who’s an EA” is less critical and can be experimented with.
One point on the spectrum could be, for example, that the organisation is mostly democratically run but the board still has veto power (over all decisions, or ones above some sum of money, or something).
