How this market settles

This market will resolve to the listed company with the larger private market valuation, as measured by the final NPM Price reported by Nasdaq Private Market, LLC (NPM), for December 31, 2026. NPM Prices are published for trading days only and are updated once daily at 1:00 PM ET on the following calendar day. If NPM has not published relevant data for the specified date by 1:00 PM ET on January 1, 2027, this market may remain open until 11:59 PM ET on January 4, 2027. If no further data is released by that time, the market will resolve according to the latest available data. If NPM ceases publishing relevant data prior to the specified date, this market will resolve based on the NPM data published prior to the cessation of coverage, as well as applicable public market capitalization data following an IPO or direct listing. If a company completes an IPO or direct listing before the specified date, this market will resolve according to the company's public market capitalization at the market close of the specified date or the most recent trading day. Public market capitalization will be determined using the final official regular-hours trading price published for the company's primary listed common equity on its primary exchange for the specified date or the most recent trading day, multiplied by the company's total outstanding common shares at the relevant time. If a listed company merges with or acquires another entity and remains the parent company, no change to resolution methodology applies. If a listed company is acquired, merges into another entity and is no longer the surviving parent company, or otherwise ceases to exist as an independent entity prior to the end of the period, only the NPM valuation and applicable public market capitalization achieved prior to completion of the transaction will be considered for resolution. No transaction, acquisition, or merger consideration will be considered for resolution. The resolution source for this market is

What could still go wrong

  • The market title says 'Anthropic vs OpenAI - higher valuation' but does not specify which outcome is YES and which is NO — it is implied YES = Anthropic higher, but this must be inferred from context
  • December 31, 2026 may not be a trading day (it falls on a Wednesday in 2026, so likely is a trading day, but NPM publication schedule depends on their calendar)
  • 'Final NPM Price' is defined as the price updated once daily at 1:00 PM ET on the following calendar day, creating a potential timezone/date mismatch for December 31 data published January 1
  • If NPM ceases coverage, resolution falls back to 'latest available data' which introduces ambiguity about timeliness and comparability
  • The 50-50 resolution clause for equal valuations creates a scenario not cleanly captured by binary YES/NO
  • Revisions to NPM data are excluded unless 'clearly erroneous' — 'clearly erroneous' is subjective and undefined
  • Total outstanding shares for public market cap calculation is not pinned to a specific filing or date, leaving room for interpretation
