The source does not explicitly state that the movement's funding apparatus channeled resources into 'EA institution-building and movement growth,' but it does mention funding for EA institutions.

The source does not explicitly state that billions remained dedicated to longtermist efforts even after the FTX collapse, but it does say that the longtermist enterprise remains well-funded and well-positioned to repair its reputation.
