About 6 times. Not up 6%—demand for the IPO was roughly six times the number of shares available for sale.

Bloomberg, citing people familiar with the matter, reported that demand for Anthropic’s IPO was about six times the number of shares on offer. Company filings say the IPO could raise up to $64.4 billion, with another roughly $26 billion from a private placement. Combined, the two could surpass SpaceX and become the largest-ever public listing. Lianhe Zaobao also reported these figures on the 13th. Details may still change, and Anthropic had not publicly commented at the time.

This morning, Binance Square’s trending page had already changed the topic to “IPO demand reaches about 6 times, potentially setting a fundraising record,” with discussion ranking among the top few topics. Bitcoin is still hovering around 68,000, while demand for the new shares is six times the available amount—where the money is going is clearer than any slogan.
