AI-powered programming startup Cursor seeks at least $2 billion in funding, with a valuation of $50 billion
According to TechCrunch, AI-powered coding startup Cursor is nearing completion of a new funding round of at least $2 billion, with a post-money valuation of approximately $50 billion—nearly doubling its $29.3 billion valuation from six months ago. The round is co-led by existing investors Thrive Capital and Andreessen Horowitz, with Battery Ventures and strategic investor NVIDIA also expected to participate. The round has already been oversubscribed, though final terms have not yet been finalized. On the performance front, Cursor projects its annualized revenue to exceed $6 billion by the end of 2026—representing at least a threefold increase over the $2 billion annualized revenue it disclosed in February this year. Regarding profitability, the company achieved a slight positive gross margin overall after launching its in-house Composer model in November last year and incorporating lower-cost third-party models (e.g., Kimi from China). Its enterprise business has already reached gross-margin profitability, while its individual developer accounts remain unprofitable.
Covenant AI Announces Exit from Bittensor Network, Claims Its Decentralization Promise Is Hollow
Sam Dare, founder of Covenant AI, announced that Covenant AI has officially exited the Bittensor network. Previously, Covenant AI completed the largest decentralized LLM pretraining project in history—Covenant-72B (a 72-billion-parameter model developed by over 70 independent contributors)—which drew attention from NVIDIA’s CEO and was cited by an Anthropic co-founder. In its statement, Covenant AI accused the Bittensor network of long concentrating actual control in the hands of co-founder Jacob Steeves (“Const”), rendering the so-called “three-signature multisig governance” merely a theatrical performance of decentralization, with real power never truly distributed. Recently, Jacob Steeves unilaterally imposed punitive measures against Covenant AI, including: suspending its subnet earnings, revoking its community channel moderation privileges, unilaterally deprecating its subnet infrastructure, and exerting economic pressure via large-scale token dumping during the ongoing conflict between the two parties. Covenant AI stated it cannot continue fundraising, recruiting talent, or soliciting community resources on a network where the promise of “decentralization” can be unilaterally revoked by a single individual. Its research outcomes, team, and models will depart alongside the team, and a new project—including related progress—will be publicly announced shortly.
AlphaTON Capital Plans to Raise $43 Million to Expand AI Computing Infrastructure
According to The Block, AlphaTON Capital has announced plans to raise $43 million through a strategic partnership with Vertical Data Inc. to expand its AI compute infrastructure; the transaction is expected to close in Q2 2026. AlphaTON CEO Brittany Kaiser stated that the funding will be used to deploy additional NVIDIA B300 GPUs, with the core objective of advancing the convergence of AI, digital assets, and confidential computing—and scaling up the platform’s overall compute capacity. On the business front, AlphaTON not only holds a substantial amount of TON tokens as corporate treasury assets but also actively participates in building infrastructure for the Telegram and TON ecosystems, with key investment focus areas including Cocoon, Telegram’s decentralized AI platform. Background-wise, AlphaTON was formed through the restructuring and transformation of former biotech public company Portage Biotech Inc., which had previously focused on cancer therapy research; the company completed the spin-off of its cancer therapy subsidiary in February this year.
