Sounds nice in theory, but when the outcome is people behaving like this and using it as a justification it rings hollow. The idea seems centered around making the most money possible as a core tenet. That alone is a pretty corrupting thing to build your whole ideology on judging from how we've seen humanity behave for thousands of years.

The simplest way I see to do this is to contribute 2x what they received from FTX (as a group, it's impractical for them to do this on the individual level) to making the financial fraud victims whole. 2. They could "declare bankruptcy", switching to less ambitious but epistemically safer approaches to philanthropy. I wouldn't blame them for doing this, (1) is a big ask.
