Edward Coristine, a 19-year-old tech adviser known online as 'Big Balls', has resigned from Elon Musk's federal DOGE taskforce following explosive reports linking him to cybercrime-related firms and internal misconduct.
The teen prodigy, once hailed as a digital reform champion within the Trump-era Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), stepped down on 24 June in Washington, D.C. His departure comes amid intensifying scrutiny over his past affiliations and the agency's opaque hiring practices.
