3 prediction markets price this story:

• Will OpenAI's IPO valuation be between $1.0T and $1.25T? — the market puts it at 10%, with $967 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 1 Jul 2027. The market resolves based on OpenAI's implied equity valuation at its IPO, calculated by multiplying the final share price by the total fully diluted shares outstanding as stated in the SEC prospectus. The outcome is Yes if this valuation falls between $1.0 trillion and $1.25 trillion, and No otherwise.
• Will OpenAI’s valuation be at least $1.30T at the end of November 2026? — the market puts it at 73%, with $845 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 30 Nov 2026. The market resolves based on OpenAI's private valuation reported by Nasdaq Private Market for the last trading day of November 2026. If OpenAI goes public before that date, the resolution uses its public market capitalization calculated from the final closing price and total shares outstanding on that same day.
• Will OpenAI's valuation hit (HIGH) $1.5T by December 31? — the market puts it at 20%, with $2k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 5 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Nasdaq Private Market reports a valuation of $1.5 trillion or higher on any trading day by December 31, 2026. If Nasdaq stops publishing data before that date, the resolution relies on the last available private data plus public market capitalization after an IPO.
