Reuters says Anthropic is in talks to make Nvidia its IPO anchor investor, with the latter considering a maximum commitment of $10 billion; this IPO or fundraising could reach up to $100 billion, valuing it at about $2 trillion.

The implications of this deal are significant: top AI assets can still attract very long-term capital, and Nvidia is not just “selling shovels”—it also wants to bind capital to lock in the compute ecosystem. For the crypto market, sentiment in the AI sector may get a boost in the short term, but a $2 trillion valuation implies extremely high realization pressure; if performance after listing is volatile, it could instead test the resilience of high-risk assets.

As of now, the deal is still being discussed, and terms may change; it’s not advisable to treat rumors as confirmed information.#AI #Anthropic #Nvidia
