Summary:
  • Anthropic's revenue run rate hit $30 billion in early April - up from $1 billion at the start of 2025.
  • The company now serves over 1,000 customers each spending $1 million or more annually on AI services.
  • Venture capital is shifting from crypto to AI as investors chase proven revenue models.

Anthropic's revenue run rate hit $30 billion in early April. That's a 30-fold increase from January 2025. The company has now surpassed OpenAI's reported $25 billion run rate. Every dollar flowing to AI is a dollar not flowing to crypto.

Where Venture Capital Goes Now

Anthropic serves over 1,000 business customers, each spending $1 million or more per year. Broadcom confirmed a deal to ship 3.5 gigawatts of computing capacity for Anthropic.

Venture capital faced a hard choice: fund blockchain experiments or fund AI companies growing 30 times per year. AI is winning that fight.

What to Watch

Watch whether Anthropic's growth rate holds steady or flattens, and whether that shifts venture capital back toward crypto ventures.
