Anthropic 的 X 账户被盗,显示代币地址约 30 分钟。最近的社交媒体漏洞是针对主流企业发起新的代币地址的高调攻击趋势中的最新一例。
Anthropic 是从 OpenAI 中分离出来的,是最新一个被黑客攻击并随后被用来推广加密代币地址的知名账户。 Anthropic 很早就注意到了这一漏洞,并很快重新获得了对其帐户的访问权限。
被黑的 Anthropic X 账户欺骗了 Venti,一个经过 X 沟通和风格训练的机器人。该机器人的主要任务是通过内容进行营销。 Venti 的行为不敬,使用了最新的互联网术语,被认为与 4Chan 的价值观和内容一致。
黑客与股票代码 CLAUDE 共享了 VENTI 和冒充官方的代币。其中一枚与此次黑客攻击有关的代币立即暴涨,在快速拉动后,为利用者留下了大约 10 万美元。

Crypto AI agents have gained popularity in the last months of 2024, first ignited by experimental accounts like Truth Terminal, Numogram (GNON), and their offshoots. Soon after that, high-profile AI agents like AI16Z combined their content with DeFi features.
As of December 2024, there are hundreds of small AI agent accounts, all fighting for attention. While Anthropic’s Claude was gaining ground, minor agents tried to attract followers and traders with their specific brand of content.
Even after the exposure, VENTI is still a relatively minor token a week into trading. The asset has been sliding since its launch, currently at $0.00025. In addition to the Anthropic hack, the token’s creators also caused a fast artificial pump, using it to rug-pull buyers who showed interest in the token.
The choice of promoting Venti through a hacked account is also seen as an attack on the project itself. Venti aimed for organic growth while training on X content data. The promotion coincided with a rug pull, which hurt VENTI more than the promotion helped. Venti was promoted in a second X message, which quoted an account that is generally supportive of AI memes.
AI agents are in a relentless tussle for mindshare. Even the original Truth Terminal is struggling to remain among the top 10 agents on social media. For Venti, the recent exposure for 11 minutes on the page of Anthropic is yet to translate into any significant following or token success.
The AI agent space as a whole has a market capitalization close to $10B, though new and small tokens can hardly compete with legacy assets that pivoted into AI. Not all AI agents are the same, and there are tiers of specialization. Some are intermixed with DeFi, others are content generators, and some are used for AI market analysis.
Previous hacks have been used to promote regular meme tokens or other types of projects. This time around, Anthropic was used to drive interest toward a new AI agent and a new token pretending to officially belong to Claude.
The latest hack follows attacks against corporate X accounts and influential persons. The account of AI agent Truth Terminal was also stolen briefly, although it has been recovered.
X account hacks have been one of the most common attacks this year. Just days ago, the Cardano Foundation lost control of its social media, where hackers promoted another Web3 asset. Other notable hacks include the account of Philip Bankss, the artist behind the CHILLGIY image and meme.
Even Drake’s account was compromised this week to shill a new meme token. The list also included McDonald’s Corporation and even the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
The hacked accounts have promoted fake airdrops, new token launches, or have spread malicious links.
