Charity organization Manifund is facing "catastrophic consequences" due to its hiring of former Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison, Manifund CEO Austin Chen posted on X on September 12, stating that the move could lead to the end of Manifund. Zachary Robinson, CEO of the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA), said that Manifund "has not yet earned the community's trust," and CEA will stop providing a platform for Manifund through its projects for the foreseeable future.
