Anthropic says Claude wrote a machine-checkable proof of Fermat's Last Theorem

Anthropic said its Claude model spent 11 days turning a proof of Fermat's Last Theorem into about 13 million lines of code that a computer can check on its own. According to the company, the resulting proof needs no human trust in the model's word, since the code itself can be independently verified. It's a rare case of a frontier AI lab describing its own output in the same terms crypto systems use for trustless verification, even though the project has nothing to do with blockchains.

Crypto industry group swap boosts odds for Senate's Clarity Act vote

The National Sheriffs' Association shifted its position on the Clarity Act from opposition to neutral in a letter dated September 3. The change removes a source of resistance from law-enforcement groups ahead of a Senate vote scheduled for September 15. Supporters see the shift as a tailwind for the bill's chances.

LeBron James teases Polymarket tie-up after record prediction-market volume

NBA star LeBron James teased a partnership with prediction market Polymarket in a new social media video. The tease follows James' free agency decision, which generated $273 million in prediction market volume across platforms. It is another sign of prediction markets moving from a niche crypto-native tool into mainstream sports and celebrity culture.

Today's Pick

For teams prototyping Web3 game assets, a Kindle guide on using Stable Diffusion to generate game graphics walks through producing characters, items, UI elements, and maps at scale. It's aimed at NFT-based game art pipelines that need to generate large volumes of visual assets quickly.

Onchain Data

Ronin (RON), a chain built for Web3 games, traded at $0.05, up 4.19% over 24 hours, as of 2026-09-06 06:30 JST (CoinGecko). It's a reminder that gaming-chain activity is worth tracking as its own segment, separate from broader crypto price swings, even while the token's dollar value stays fractional.

The Take

Three unrelated items today are really about the same problem: how a system earns trust before it has an established track record. The Clarity Act works through law, trading years of regulatory ambiguity for a fixed rulebook lawmakers can point to. LeBron James' Polymarket tease works through culture, borrowing an athlete's audience to make a prediction market feel familiar instead of speculative. Anthropic's proof works through math, arguing a result needs no trust in its author because the code checks itself. Web3 gaming will eventually need all three forms of trust, though which one moves fastest from here is unclear.
