CoreWeave Slide Widens OpenAI-Anthropic Valuation Gap on Hyperliquid

OpenAI and Anthropic's pre-IPO perpetual futures moved in opposite directions as CoreWeave shares hit a one-year low, widening the gap between the AI companies' contract-implied valuations on Hyperliquid. OpenAI futures fell more than 4% over the prior 24 hours as of Friday morning ET and briefly implied a valuation below $1.5 trillion. Anthropic's rose 2.4%, recovering from an overnight dip and pointing to a value just above $2 trillion. Both contracts remained about 15% below highs reached last month. These contracts do not expire, and their prices estimate private-market values rather than official valuations. Their oracle benchmarks use information such as private funding rounds and secondary-market transactions. Open interest, the combined long and short positions, topped $41 million for Anthropic and stayed below $7 million for OpenAI.
