Anthropic’s Largest Short Seller Adds to Position, Now Worth $70.5M

The gap between Hyperliquid's pre-market pricing for ANT and Anthropic's stated IPO range is the real signal here: a large short seller building a $70.5M position while the contract trades well above the range suggests conviction that pre-market enthusiasm is overdone relative to the official valuation. That divergence matters because it puts speculative pre-market pricing and the formal IPO process in tension, and the short's modest unrealized profit shows the trade has yet to be rewarded. Whether the pre-market premium compresses toward the IPO range before listing is the open question.
