ANTHROPIC Stock Perps Become ANT: How the Share Adjustment Protects Your Position
Anthropic, the AI company behind Claude, filed an S-1 registration statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in October 2026 for a proposed Nasdaq listing under the ticker ANT. Many traders already follow Anthropic through our IPO Prime, or the ANTHROPIC stock perps on Bitget. On 11 November 2026, we announced how this contract will change when the company lists. It will be renamed ANT, and its price will be rescaled to Anthropic's official share count. Your position value and your profit and loss (PnL) will stay the same, and you do not need to do anything.
How the ANTHROPIC contract is priced today
Anthropic has not yet published its total number of shares. To quote a price per share before that, the ANTHROPIC contract assumes 1 billion shares outstanding. This is a temporary figure commonly used across the industry. It is not Anthropic's actual share count.
The placeholder also tells you what the price means. Multiply the contract price by 1 billion to get the company value the market is pricing in. At a mark price of 1,381.17 USDT, the contract implied a value of about 1.38 trillion USDT for Anthropic.

Renaming to ANT and everything that follows
When Anthropic lists on Nasdaq, the ANTHROPIC contract will take the new ticker, ANT. The rename does not delist the contract, force any position to close, or liquidate anyone. You can open, close, and hold positions as usual, just under a different ticker.
Once Anthropic confirms its total number of shares, we will adjust the contract in proportion to the official figure. This lines up the contract price with the real price of one Anthropic share.
Trading on the contract will be suspended for about 2 hours while the adjustment runs. During that window you cannot open, close, or change a position, so plan around it if you trade with leverage. We will publish the timing in a separate announcement.
A worked example
Alex holds a long position of 10 ANTHROPIC contracts. Alex's average entry price is 1,000 USDT, and the mark price is 1,500 USDT.
Anthropic then announces 10 billion shares outstanding. The adjustment ratio is 10 billion divided by the 1 billion placeholder, which is 10. That is the same as a 10-for-1 stock split. The new price per share is 1,500 / 10 = 150 USDT.

How it changes |
| Mark price |
1,500 |
150 |
Old price × 1/10 |
| Position size |
10 |
100 |
Old size × 10 |
| Average entry price |
1,000 |
100 |
Old average × 1/10 |
| Position value |
1,500 × 10 = 15,000 |
150 × 100 = 15,000 |
Unchanged |
| Unrealized PnL |
(1,500 − 1,000) × 10 = 5,000 |
(150 − 100) × 100 = 5,000 |
Unchanged |
Alex's position is worth 15,000 USDT before and after the adjustment, with the same 5,000 USDT unrealized profit.
The same rule works in reverse. If Anthropic announced 500 million shares, the ratio would be 0.5. A mark price of 1,500 USDT would become 3,000 USDT, and 10 contracts would become 5. The position value would stay at 15,000 USDT.
Stock splits after the listing
Anthropic could change its share count again before or after it lists, for example through a stock split or a reverse split. We will handle any such change with the same rule: adjust the contract size and keep the notional value of your position unchanged.
What you need to do
The renaming and the adjustment will be completed automatically. You do not need to submit a request, switch positions by hand, or reopen anything. The only thing you need to pay attention to is the 2 hour pause. Ensure that you have enough margin to ride the price change and you will be good to go.
We will keep following Anthropic's listing and post further announcements at each key step. Rely on official Bitget announcements, and treat information from unofficial channels with caution.
