Anthropic shares fall as US orders AI model suspension

Anthropic-linked contracts on Hyperliquid fell 3.7% on June 13 to about US$1,627 after the AI company suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models following a US government order.

The contracts had traded above US$1,800 after the launch of Fable 5.

On Hyperliquid, the cash-settled contracts reflect implied company valuations rather than actual share prices.

Anthropic said the US government directed it on June 12 to suspend access to the two models for foreign nationals, both inside and outside the US, citing national security concerns and a potential jailbreak.

The company subsequently disabled both models for all customers. Anthropic said officials provided only verbal evidence of what appeared to be a potentially narrow bypass.

Its own review found a small number of previously known vulnerabilities rather than a universal jailbreak.

The development comes amid broader US efforts to restrict access to advanced AI models and related computing technologies.
