Payward has joined Anthropic’s Project Glasswing, gaining access to Claude Mythos 5 for defensive cybersecurity work. The Kraken parent plans to use the model across its environments and disclose third-party open-source vulnerabilities to maintainers.

A volunteer group of Bitcoin developers using AI tools has identified thousands of vulnerabilities across wallets, cryptographic libraries and infrastructure projects.
