Crypto companies seek access to Anthropic’s Mythos, The Information says

Major crypto exchanges and custodians including Coinbase (COIN) and Binance are racing to prepare for powerful AI models like Anthropic’s Mythos, which the AI companu says could be dangerously good at finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities, The Information’s Yueqi Yang reports. Coinbase, the biggest U.S. crypto exchange, has been in “close communication” with Anthropic about Mythos, “a highly restricted model not available to the public,” Coinbase Chief Security Officer Philip Martin said. “Mythos, and future models like it, will enable even deeper testing of software and systems at scale. This will accelerate digital threats as well as digital Defense.”
