How this market settles
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
