Recent research by major artificial intelligence company Antropic and AI security organization Machine Learning Alignment & Theory Scholars (MATS) showed that AI agents collectively developed smart contract exploits worth $4.6 million. Research released by Anthropic’s red team (a team dedicated to acting like a bad actor to discover potential for abuse) on Monday said that currently available commercial AI models are capable of exploiting smart contracts. Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.5, Claude Sonnet 4.5 and OpenAI’s GPT-5 collectively developed exploits worth $4.6 million when tested on contracts, exploiting them after their most recent training data was gathered.

Grayscale said Bitcoin’s 2025 sell-off looks like a local bottom, not a new cycle peak, with Fed policy and US crypto bills key for 2026. Bitcoin’s latest pullback may already be bottoming out, with asset manager Grayscale arguing that the market is on track to break the traditional four-year halving cycle and potentially set new all-time highs in 2026.
