Anthropic’s planned initial public offering could carry a valuation of as much as $1.5 trillion, but direct access appears difficult for many Asian investors because of heavy subscription demand and related restrictions, according to Bloomberg, as cited by Odaily. That has pushed some investors toward indirect exposure through crypto-linked products instead.
OKX and Binance have already listed perpetual contracts tied to Anthropic’s valuation. On EntropyIO, a platform under Hyperliquid, a related perpetual contract at one point implied a valuation of about $1.88 trillion. The pricing shows that crypto venues are being used as a proxy route for investors who cannot easily participate in the IPO itself.
The report also noted that Anthropic still faces several risks, including an uncertain path to profitability, high capital requirements for AI projects, and intense competition across the sector. Any proxy investment tied to the company may also be affected by broader industry factors, meaning the derivatives trade does not remove the underlying risks around the AI business.
