There will be so many tokens ⬇️
Are Crypto Tokens Just Equity Without Investor Protections? As tokens increasingly provide economic exposure to projects, an important question remains: what protections do investors actually receive? At InnovateMiami, @MikeSilagadze (@ether_fi), @akshat_hk (@MaelstromFund), Chase Lax (Susquehanna Crypto), and @LowBeta_ (@Grayscale) debated the intersection of token design, regulation, governance, and investor expectations. Moderated by Joe Buttram (@fielddigitalco). Watch the full panel now: youtu.be/evu5kVAs_3Q

Grayscale Research team published its first price target: $175 for $AAVE in 1yr Many crypto assets can be valued with cash flows. Aave is a great place to start due to its size and transparent financials. My colleague @charlieperk4 details our approach in a new report ⬇️

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

Access to intelligence should not depend on a handful of companies or governments. This is why open, decentralized, permissionless AI matters. This is why Bittensor matters.

Shielded Labs worked with Anthropic to audit the Zcash protocol with Mythos using prompts provided by @DefuseSec. No serious vulnerabilities were found.
Thanks, Anthropic, for helping protect Zcash users. At Shielded Labs’s request, they ran a security audit of Zcash with Mythos. It did not find any more serious bugs in the Zcash protocol. Shielded Labs and others are continuing security hardening work. Stay tuned for updates.
