FTX Creditors Could Be Made Whole (Patreon)

Anthropic is in early talks to raise $2 billion just days after making an agreement with Amazon.com Inc. in which the online conglomerate agreed to invest up to $4 billion. Tech news site The Information earlier reported the funding discussions, and said that a deal could value the company at as much as $30 billion.

Early days yet but looks like the small investment of $500M could own a big chunk of a $30BN company. 

1. Anthropic Funding Talks: Artificial intelligence startup Anthropic is in preliminary discussions to raise $2 billion. This comes shortly after the company reached an agreement with Amazon.com Inc., with the e-commerce giant agreeing to invest up to $4 billion in Anthropic.
2. Company Valuation: Reports from tech news site "The Information" suggest that this potential funding deal could value Anthropic at as much as $30 billion.
3. FTX Connection: A group called the FTX 2.0 Coalition, made up of FTX creditors, have shown interest in these developments as FTX and its sister company, Alameda Research, previously invested $500 million in Anthropic. Moreover, FTX co-founder Sam Bankman-Fried and other key figures were also investors in Anthropic.
4. Importance of Anthropic in FTX's Portfolio: Anthropic, known for developing an AI chatbot named Claude, has become a significant entity in the AI sector. As a result, the startup's equity is one of the most desired assets of FTX. Despite the high demand, FTX had previously paused the sale of its stake in Anthropic.
