According to CoinTelegraph, the U.S. government requested Anthropic to suspend access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for foreign users on national security grounds, prompting Anthropic to shut down these models for all users. Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, noted that this incident highlights the control risks of centralized AI and will continue to drive demand for decentralized AI. Within 12 hours of the announcement, Bittensor’s TAO token rose 30%, reaching a three-week high of $283. Pandl positioned Bittensor as "the Bitcoin of AI," arguing that its decentralized architecture provides users with access to AI resources free from government control. Colton Malkerson, co-founder of EdgeRunner AI, warned that long-term reliance on large AI labs is akin to "renting intelligence," exposing companies to sudden disruption. Technology entrepreneur Brett Hurt also stated that this event sets a dangerous precedent for government intervention in AI business models.
