Anthropic IPO on Bitget IPO Prime: Theoretical Returns Calculated

Anthropic's IPO is followed far beyond Wall Street. Since the company filed to list on Nasdaq under the ticker ANT, people who use Claude at work have been watching it as closely as fund managers, and many of them want shares at the offer price. In a US IPO, retail investors rarely get that. Bitget IPO Prime lets you subscribe with USDT in one of 2 rounds for both retail and institutional investors.

What recent IPOs did by day 3

The VIP round is geared towards institutional investors, with a 12% upfront fee, against 5% in the public round. Assume a 50% allocation in the VIP round, which sits inside the 40% to 80% our partner channels have filled in past offerings, 5,000 USDT into the shares will incur a 600 USDT fee. While this fee may seem hefty at first glance, historical data shows it may just a small fee for a higher chance at a much higher return.

Day 3 matters for the VIP round, because VIP-round rTokens arrive from T+3 business days and cannot be sold on listing day. At the third-day close of 3 recent US listings, 10,000 USDT would have netted (assuming a 50% allocation):

In each case, the higher allocation earned the VIP round 7 to 10 times what the public round made. And the rest 50% of your funds will be returned to you, or subscribe to our Earn product with an exclusive APR bonus.

Where the 12% fee costs you

Comparing our 12% fee to recent IPO returns, the number will begin to look enticing. If Anthropic fails to achieve a 13.6% growth - which is a little unlikely given the attention it receives - the public round will be more worthwhile, albeit with a lower chance to get a hefty allocation. The difference in their fee rates is essentially the cost to get a higher chance and a larger share of allocation, not to mention a potentially higher return on your investment.
