Anthropic IPO Hard to Access? Investors Turn to Crypto Derivatives to Position Early

Odaily reports that Anthropic's planned IPO could be valued at up to $1.5 trillion. On the second NWE, due to strong subscription demand and related restrictions, it is difficult for Asian investors to participate directly in the IPO, so they have begun turning to indirect investment channels such as crypto derivatives. It is understood that OKX and Binance have launched perpetual contracts linked to Anthropic's valuation, and the implied valuation of related perpetual contracts on Hyperliquid's EntropyIO platform once reached approximately $1.88 trillion. However, Anthropic still faces risks such as an uncertain path to profitability, high capital investment in AI projects, and intense industry competition, and related "proxy" investments may also be affected by other industry factors.
