Artificial intelligence giant Anthropic has recently updated its official support page, issuing a stern warning to global investors. The company clearly states that a large number of private and secondary market investment platforms have emerged in the market, claiming to offer shares of its company, most of which are not authorized by the official.

As the AI sector becomes extremely popular, Anthropic's secondary market shares have become one of the hardest-to-obtain investment targets. This extreme supply-demand imbalance has given rise to numerous illegal trading platforms, attempting to sell so-called "original shares" through illegal channels.

Notifying Illegal Trading Institutions

Anthropic lists several institutions, including Open Doors Partners, Unicorns Exchange, and Pachamama Capital, on its warning list. The company emphasizes that any share sales or transfer agreements conducted through these platforms are considered legally invalid, and the shareholder register will not recognize them.

The official stated that both the company's common and preferred shares are subject to strict transfer restrictions, and any equity changes must be approved by the board of directors. This means that secondary market transactions conducted through special purpose vehicles (SPVs) or forward-looking contracts are considered "useless paper" without legal validity in the eyes of the company.

Preventing Financial Derivative Risks

Aside from traditional share transfers, high-risk AI derivatives such as "tokenized securities" and "IPO perpetual futures" have also appeared in the market. Although these products claim to track Anthropic's market value, they actually represent no real ownership and may even involve serious fraud risks.

Currently, Anthropic's valuation is rumored to have reached $900 billion, and it is in a critical funding period. The company's high-profile statement aims to maintain the purity of its equity structure and prevent complex legal disputes caused by illegal secondary market transactions before its official listing on the capital market.
