Anthropic said it will mark AI-generated text and files produced by its Claude models, putting into practice its commitments under the EU AI Act's Code of Practice on transparency, which the company has signed as a provider of generative AI models and systems.
Claude models launched in the EU on or after August 2, 2026 will support machine-readable marking from day one, per the company. Generated text will carry embedded watermarks and generated files will include digitally signed provenance metadata where supported, the data that traces content back to its AI origin.
The marks will apply across Anthropic's products, including its API, the Claude app, Claude Code, Cowork and Tag, and everywhere Claude is offered worldwide, not just in the EU, though the company noted some platforms and features may not support every marking type. Anthropic said it will also help users and third parties detect the marks, as the Code requires, with technical documentation to follow.
Models launched before August 2 fall under a transition period, and Anthropic said it is working to add marking support to those as well.
Bitcoin slipped 2% to about $64,200 on Monday, dragged down less by any single catalyst than by the corporations that once championed it turning their attention to AI, says Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro.
The wider market fell 2% to $2.18 trillion, with roughly ten coins falling for every one that rose.
The names doing the pivoting are the ones that gave crypto institutional cover, holders led by Strategy and miners like MARA, which spent the past two years rebranding themselves around AI data centers.
Institutional money is now selling bitcoin to build liquidity or rotate into that trade, Kuptsikevich said, and with corporate enthusiasm draining, the risk is that BTC position liquidation accelerates over the coming weeks.
Corporations joined crypto when it flattered their image, the reverse of the stock market, where retail usually arrives last and takes the losses. As those companies leave, Kuptsikevich argues, they hand crypto back to the retail base that built it, returning bitcoin to its ideological roots even if the exit stings on the way out.
Bitcoin is sitting just above its 50-day moving average, which has traded nearly flat for three weeks, a standoff between sellers distributing and buyers absorbing. Watch whether that line holds.
