Polymarket · x · 2026-11-07
Polymarket reports OpenAI secured $11 billion in new funding at a $1.25 trillion valuation, alongside an 'OpenAI IPO by...?' market ($3.1M+ volume). Traders price only 2% odds of an IPO by Dec 31, 2026, 20% by March 2027 and 46% by June 2027. OpenAI president Greg Brockman said Nov 5 the company could be IPO-ready in 2027 after enterprise sales surpassed consumer revenue for the first time; it confidentially filed an S-1 in June, its last private round valued it at $852B, and Q3 growth was driven by model releases and enterprise adoption of Codex — racing Anthropic's expected late-November listing.
