To be honest, I’m quite concerned about DeFi’s short-term future. Beyond the接连不断的 major DeFi protocols being exploited and the large-scale infiltration by Jin Jiang’s cyber forces, the emergence of Mythos—a super AI—makes DeFi look like an obvious “honeypot” compared to centralized giants like Apple, banking systems, or Visa. And unlike those neutral institutions, the accountability for theft from DeFi is far weaker. 🍯 Mythos is considered too powerful to be publicly released—it can detect critical zero-day vulnerabilities in mainstream operating systems and browsers with extreme efficiency, making it ripe for abuse by cybercriminals and intelligence agencies. To prevent Mythos from being weaponized, Anthropic has restricted initial access to Mythos Preview to only a handful of the world’s largest cybersecurity and software companies. The 12 founding partners include: Amazon Web Services, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, JPMorgan Chase, Linux Foundation, Microsoft, Nvidia, Palo Alto Networks, and Anthropic itself. In addition to these core partners, a total of 40 organizations will gain access to Mythos Preview—but regrettably: Not a single blockchain-related company appears on the list. Aave’s code is among the most elegant, secure, and battle-tested in Web3—but even it cannot prevent issues stemming from the underlying assets being pledged. With so many collateral types, is Aave expected to audit each one individually? 😂😂 I have no doubt that the moment Mythos is released, numerous on-chain protocols will be systematically exploited, resulting in massive asset theft. I believe Jin Jiang has both the motive and the means to do exactly that. Of course, Mythos could also be used to strengthen defenses—but it will inevitably be a step behind, likely only deployed after the looting has already occurred. Keep a close eye on Mythos’s progress—and when interacting with on-chain DeFi, keep your funds minimal. Period.
