Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects tight competition between a 750B–1T IPO closing market cap (31.5% implied probability) and no IPO by December 31, 2027 (30.5%), driven by OpenAI's recent $110 billion funding round at an $840 billion post-money valuation in late February 2026, alongside $25 billion annualized revenue surpassing prior forecasts. Massive compute spending projections—potentially $600 billion through 2030—and enterprise erosion to rivals like Anthropic have fueled valuation skepticism, despite SoftBank's fresh $40 billion loan signaling IPO groundwork for late 2026. Key swing factors include regulatory filings, model leadership in the AI arms race, and public market tolerance for OpenAI's high burn rate versus revenue growth trajectory, with Q4 2026 as a pivotal catalyst window.

Resolution will be based on the primary exchange’s official listing page. In the event that the relevant figure is not displayed, another reliable source will be used.
