How this market settles

This market will resolve to "Yes" if Anthropic's private market valuation, as measured by the NPM Price reported by Nasdaq Private Market, LLC (NPM) for any date between market creation and December 31, 2026, is equal to or beyond (equal to or above for ↑ HIGH valuations, equal to or below for ↓ LOW valuations) the listed amount. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". 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 all business dates in the specified period 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 data available. If NPM ceases publishing relevant data prior to the end of the specified period, this market will resolve based on the NPM data published for the period prior to the cessation of coverage, as well as any applicable public market capitalization data following an IPO or direct listing. If the company completes an IPO or direct listing before the end of the specified period, this market will consider, in addition to the relevant NPM valuations published between market creation and the IPO or direct listing date, the valuation implied by the official IPO or direct listing price, and the company's public market capitalization between the IPO or direct listing date and the end of the specified period. Public market capitalization will be determined using the highest/lowest official regular-hours trading price published for the company's primary listed common equity on its primary exchange for any trading day during the specified period, multiplied by the company's total outstanding common shares at the relevant time. If the listed company merges with or acquires another entity and remains the parent company, no change to resolution methodology applies. If the listed company is acquired, merges in

What could still go wrong

  • The term 'valuation' as measured by NPM Price may differ from commonly reported funding round valuations, creating potential confusion about which valuation metric applies.
  • The deadline for data publication is 1:00 PM ET on January 1, 2027 for December 31 trading data, with a grace period until 11:59 PM ET on January 4, 2027, introducing timezone and calendar edge-case ambiguity.
  • Total outstanding common shares used for public market cap calculation is not defined with a specific source, which could cause disputes if share counts are contested or restated.
  • Revisions to NPM data are excluded unless 'clearly erroneous' — the threshold for 'clearly erroneous' is subjective and undefined.
  • The market creation date is not explicitly stated, creating ambiguity about the start of the measurement period.
