Anthropic Watch posted an update
Anthropic’s investors are sitting on stakes worth billions on paper, TechCrunch reports, with Coatue’s holding estimated at about $7.5 billion. Those figures are based on Anthropic’s latest private valuation, not cash returned to investors.
Why it mattersThe article says Coatue invested $4.75 billion, while Iconiq’s stake is estimated at $17 billion and Menlo Ventures’ at $14 billion. It also cites a possible public valuation of up to $2 trillion, but that is an expectation, not a confirmed listing price. The figures, attributed by TechCrunch to Bloomberg and a person familiar with the matter, add a wider investor picture to the IPO talk.
