This market will resolve to "Yes" if OpenAI completes an Initial Public Offering (IPO) by the listed date ET, as confirmed by official company announcements and credible news sources. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". The IPO refers to the first sale of stock by the listed company to the public on any recognized stock exchange. If OpenAI is acquired by another company that is already public, this market will immediately resolve to "No." The resolution source for this market is a consensus of credible reporting.Recent Wall Street Journal reporting discloses OpenAI's shortfalls on revenue and one-billion weekly active user targets for ChatGPT, amid slowing growth, subscriber churn, and competitive pressure from Google's Gemini and Anthropic's coding tools, prompting CFO Sarah Friar to question the aggressive end-2026 IPO timeline and $600 billion data-center commitments. A new Microsoft deal enhances OpenAI's multi-cloud independence and caps revenue sharing through 2030, easing restructuring hurdles post-$122 billion funding at $852 billion valuation. Elon Musk's trial, starting this week, risks exposing leadership rifts that could sway trader consensus on IPO feasibility, while board scrutiny of compute spending heightens uncertainty in the AI race.
