Crypto companies and the Bitcoin Policy Institute have urged frontier AI labs to provide trusted access to top AI models for Bitcoin and other open-source financial infrastructure developers to improve their defence against increasingly advanced AI-assisted cyber threats.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech, and 2 sources have reported it.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face an urgent need to secure access to advanced AI tools to defend Bitcoin and open-source finance software from AI-driven attackers. Without this, attackers using better AI will gain an unfair advantage and exploit vulnerabilities faster than you can fix them.
