The three winning answers of this market will be determined by the research I do to resolve my other markets in this "New EA Cause Area" tag -- each of those ~20 markets asks if a given EA cause area will get $10M in funding between Oct 2023 and the start of 2030, and this market is about which three cause areas get the most funding in that time (doesn't matter if it's over or under $10M).

I'm excluding two "New EA Cause Area" markets from the answers listed above -- the Patient Philanthropy Fund, and "impact markets" like manifund -- since these are more like charitable-giving strategies than actual object-level cause areas.

"EA funders" means places like OpenPhil, LTFF, SFF, Longview Philanthropy, Founders Fund, GiveWell, ACX Grants, etc. Some example "EA-adjacent" funding sources that wouldn't count, even if their money goes directly to this cause area: Patrick Collison, Yuri Milner, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Elon Musk, Vitalik Buterin, Peter Thiel. This is obviously a fuzzy distinction (what if one of the aforementioned billionares becomes noticeably more EA-influenced by 2030? etc), but I'll try my best to resolve the question in the spirit of reflecting how the EA community has grown over time.

As for what exactly falls under the heading of each category above, please see the descriptions of each individual market in the "New EA Cause Area" tag!
