The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission had previously filed a civil lawsuit against those involved in August 2022.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei stated on Wednesday at the Code With Claude developer conference in San Francisco that the company's revenue in the first quarter saw an 80-fold increase alongside customer AI usage, which took the company by surprise. He mentioned that the company had originally planned for a 10-fold annual growth, but the actual growth rate far exceeded expectations, leading to a tight supply of computing power.Anthropic's annualized revenue increased from nearly $1 billion at the end of 2024 to $9 billion by the end of the year, and by early April this year, it had surged to $30 billion. The strong demand for Claude Code and work agents allowed it to nearly meet its annual forecast ahead of schedule last month. To alleviate the pressure on computing power, Anthropic signed contracts for a total of 10 gigawatts of computing power supply with Amazon and Google over the past month, and announced on Thursday that it will utilize all the computing power of xAI's first data center, Colossus 1, located in Memphis, within the next month. Amodei stated that the company will continue to acquire more computing power as much as possible.

According to The Block, Patrick Witt, the executive director of the White House Digital Asset Advisory Committee, stated at the Consensus conference that the goal is to pass the crypto market structure bill into law before the deadline. He believes the Senate may advance the legislation in June, allowing enough time for the House to pass its version as well.The main obstacle for the bill in the Senate Banking Committee is the handling of stablecoin rewards. The compromise language released last week seems to have resolved this issue, but the banking industry association believes there are still "insufficiencies." Additionally, ethical provisions have become a new focus. New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand stated that she would not support the bill without ethical provisions. Witt mentioned that discussions with Democrats are progressing well, and the rules will apply equally to new interns in the White House and Capitol Hill, without targeting specific individuals.

According to the Senate Banking Committee's official website, next week (April 21) there is only one nomination hearing on the agenda, and there are no scheduled discussions/modifications for the anticipated digital assets or CLARITY Act.Additionally, Politico reports that Senator Thom Tillis will release the final draft this week, which is the last piece needed before the committee holds a markup meeting. The bill still needs to align with the Senate Agriculture Committee, pass the Senate's 60-vote threshold in a full vote (requiring Democratic support), and then coordinate with the House of Representatives.Some analysts point out that if a markup meeting is not scheduled between April 20 and 25, the midterm election politics could completely stifle the bill, as bipartisan cooperation would vanish entirely.

According to CCTV news reports, Iran stated that the U.S. Navy destroyers "Frank E. Peterson" and "Michael Murphy" attempted to "infiltrate" the Strait of Hormuz the previous day, and indicated that the U.S. warships used the cover of the ceasefire conditions to create false propaganda of "successful passage" and to influence the ongoing U.S.-Iran negotiations.Iran claimed that the two warships attempted to disguise themselves as Omani merchant vessels sailing off the southern coast of Oman, choosing a dangerous route that was very close to the coast and had a shallow draft, hoping to enter the Persian Gulf through "covert" movements and the "negligence" of the Iranian military during the ceasefire. The Iranian Navy ultimately intercepted them at the entrance to the Persian Gulf. The two destroyers were forced to withdraw to the Oman Sea without being able to enter the Strait of Hormuz.
