Buckmaster alleged that a parallel OpenAI team may have built on his unpublished work, while OpenAI denied seeing the research but said it could not rule out de-identified data contributing to model improvements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The controversy quickly spread online and renewed attention on platforms that take a different approach to AI privacy. One of the biggest beneficiaries of that discussion was Venice, the AI platform founded by Erik Voorhees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Venice positions itself around private AI usage, with prompts kept on user devices while users access open-source models without requiring accounts or conventional content filters. Its native token, VVV, is tied directly to the platform\u2019s ecosystem: staking VVV provides API capacity, while part of Venice\u2019s revenue is used to buy and burn tokens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rally also came with strong market activity. Trading volume crossed $300 million, while Venice\u2019s market value approached $1.3 billion. The company has also reported a $100 million annualized revenue run rate in August, following a $65 million raise at a $1 billion valuation in July.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Derivatives activity backed up the increased interest. Aggregated open interest stood near $112 million, while funding remained positive at around 0.0062, suggesting traders were still leaning long without funding becoming excessively stretched.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"273\" src=\"https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632-1024x273.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-88774\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632-1024x273.png 1024w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632-300x80.png 300w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632-768x204.png 768w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632-1536x409.png 1536w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632-150x40.png 150w, https:\/\/mudrex.com\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/29e55fc7-c8ba-4599-a8c8-5c41ed339632.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With price momentum, rising attention around private AI and growing usage of the Venice ecosystem all converging, VVV stood out as one of the strongest-performing tokens of the week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Venice Token (VVV) is our Token of the Week after surging more than 35%, with the token breaking above the $20 level and briefly trading close to $29 before settling around $22.
