Anthropic has yet to go public, but crypto traders have already profited
Anthropic Pre-IPO perpetual contracts displayed a more than 15-fold nominal price gap because exchanges used different share-count denominators. Traders exploited the Rebase rules. After the S-1/A prospectus disclosed about 13.087 billion shares outstanding, OKX applied an adjustment factor of 1.3116, and normalized quotes converged to 102–104 USD.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
Different share-count denominators produced widely different nominal contract prices. The source says traders took advantage of the Rebase adjustment rules, and normalized quotes moved closer together after adjustment.
Why it matters to readers
Check the quotation methodology before comparing contracts. The source attributes the nominal gap to different share counts, and the headline prices alone do not establish an arbitrage opportunity.
Compare exchange prices only after checking their basis. The reported arbitrage profits do not establish a repeatable return.
Risks and unknowns
The brief report supplies no prospectus or exchange notice, so the share count, adjustment parameter and quotes have not been independently verified.
The source does not identify the other exchanges, the quote times, how 1.3116 was calculated or the full Rebase rules.
The source provides no actual returns, transaction costs or actionable arbitrage steps.
