What Anthropic’s Mythos Means For Crypto Security

    Artificial intelligence is reshaping cybersecurity across the crypto industry. While Bitcoin itself is considered resilient, the platforms that connect users to their assets may be more vulnerable. AI can scan complex software systems quickly, uncovering hidden flaws and enabling faster attacks. This shift is forcing crypto companies to rethink how they protect their infrastructure.

    What Anthropic’s Mythos Means For Crypto Security

    27 Comments

    1. The best quote about cryptocurrency comes from Warren Buffett:
      Cryptocurrencies are pure speculation, because cryptos have no intrinsic value.
      The only way to make money with cryptocurrencies is to find another speculator willing to buy your cryptos at a higher value than you paid!

    2. I wouldn't put it past AI to find a vulnerability in RSA that no human has ever thought of, but if that happens, crypto will be the least of everyone's worries. The whole world runs on the same type of encryption

    3. Honestly, we would need a parabolic run. Whatever that means. Because I am not expecting bitcoin going to 1M… After the run it may crash again so 60k bitcoin feels cheap. Right now something seems off: institutions, ETFs, US SBR, countries warming up to 'crypto' regulations…and yet, bitcoin's just above 70k. Retail FOMO almost non-existent. Don't get me wrong, I am satisfied with the price – all my purchases are in green – but I guess I need some convincing price action to start accumulating again before the next pump…managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 932k in the space of a few months. Thanks again, Seren Wintersun , for the regular updates,

    4. Anthropic marketing campaign… every new model will "Change the world". We heard the same from ChatGPT 5, and others…

      They are getting better, but, fundamentally, they aren't truly smart, just a very good with statistics and lots of computing power

    5. Crypto is a limited lifespan technology, eventually destroyed or replaced by better technologies. No brainer. If it had a value besides dark money transfers, it could last longer.
