TREE NEWS update: Binance Futures plans to revise the estimated share count of its ANTHROPICUSDT pre-IPO perpetual contract from 1 billion to 13,116,075,288 shares, based on Anthropic’s S-1/A-2 filing submitted on Nov. 10. The figure comprises 13,086,672,593 shares of common stock outstanding after the offering and concurrent private placement, plus shares added after Sept. 30 from acquisitions of private companies and related issuances. The adjustment will occur before Anthropic’s official listing, with timing to be announced separately, and the contract will be renamed ANTUSDT, with existing positions unaffected.
Binance to raise Anthropic pre-IPO perpetual share base to 13.1B, rename contract ANTUSDT
Pre-IPO perpetuals are only as credible as their reference data, and Binance is effectively re-basing this contract to a filed share count rather than a placeholder. That matters for anyone using the product to express a view on Anthropic ahead of its listing, since the contract's economics shift with the base even as existing positions are left untouched. The open question is how other venues and issuers handle similar pre-IPO contracts when filings force a recalibration.
