The Anthropic Pre-IPO Challenge is now live on Kraken Pro, allowing traders to compete for a share of up to $20,000 USDG. The competition runs from September 17 to October 17, 2026, and participants must enroll via the Kraken Pro app or web before placing any trades.

The challenge involves trading the ANTHROPICx Perp (PF_ANTHROPICXUSD), a perpetual futures contract that gives price exposure to Anthropic ahead of its anticipated IPO. Traders can use up to 10x leverage and compete for prizes based on their individual trading volume.

The top-ranked participants will share the prize pool, with a minimum of $10,000 in trading volume required to qualify for prizes. The community's combined trading volume must reach $100 million during the competition window to unlock the full $20,000 USDG prize pool.
