NoteThe source text is the official announcement of the FTX Future Fund published on 2022-02-28. It explicitly identifies the team members as Nick Beckstead (CEO), Leopold Aschenbrenner, Will MacAskill, and Ketan Ramakrishnan. Avital Balwit is not mentioned in this source document at all. The claim states Avital Balwit was a 'Team Member' at FTX Future Fund with employment dates 2022-02 to 2022-11. While the source confirms the organization existed and was active during the claimed period, it does not mention Avital Balwit as a team member. This is unverifiable based on the provided source — the source neither confirms nor contradicts the claim about Avital Balwit's employment, as it simply does not address this person.
