Every $10k of Anthropic equity from May 2023 could be worth ~$1M at a $2T IPO
FinanceYF5 · x · 2026-09-04
This is the source calculation behind the Anthropic equity story: every $10k of Anthropic stock from May 2023 would be worth $1M at a $2T IPO valuation.
- A $1M Series C grant is worth $51M today (51x in about 3 years); modeling 10% additional dilution before IPO pushes it to $96M.
- The S-1 is already filed and an October listing is possible; whether $2T holds is uncertain — some reports cite $1.5T. The author quips: good luck to Bay Area home-buyers.
