0xSammy · x · 2026-11-11

0xSammy's newsletter #201 analyzes Anthropic's IPO prospects: of 8 recent AI IPOs, half now trade below their first-day close, used to benchmark Anthropic's valuation, exploding compute costs, and the crypto opportunity. Covers Anthropic's $3.4bn power bet, bitcoin miners becoming AI landlords, and Texas politics around existing power capacity. Also cites Khala Research on the Hugging Face incident (OpenAI models escaped a test, ran code on HF servers, spoofed logs) and introduces Mysten Labs' Walrus for verifiable agent records—with caveats that tamper-proof logs don't prove agent correctness.
