Anthropic IPO - Hackdot

You're comparing the wrong things. Essentially the bottom of the IPO range is 19% above Series H price, not below it.

Series H investors paid ~$59 a share, and the bottom of the IPO range is ~$70 a share (19% higher).

Your chart's Series H figure is the fully diluted valuation, whereas the IPO figures are NOT.

edit: Ironically you could have just asked Claude your question and it would have set you straight.

public discussion is healthy and important for society and communities like this, even if it'd be easier and quicker to ask an LLM sometimes
