Gate News reports that on March 20, Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) invested $500 million in AI company Anthropic through Alameda Research in 2022, which could now be worth $30 billion. At that time, SBF participated in Anthropic’s Series B funding round, acquiring an 8% stake. Currently, Anthropic’s valuation has soared to $380 billion, making that stake potentially worth over $30 billion. Recently, Anthropic completed a $30 billion Series G funding round, establishing itself as a major player in the AI industry. However, the funds SBF used for the investment came from customer deposits at a certain exchange, leading to legal consequences. He is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence.
