Recently, quite a few people have been asking me in DMs about the Gate IPO. I’ve compiled the info I currently have for everyone’s reference.

$722 / OPENAI a model combining time weight and the proportion of capital投入
Recommended to participate as soon as possible Snapshots every hour
Implied valuation: about $895 billion
Secondary market mirror price: currently around $825 for similar tokenized OpenAI products
Total subscription amount: 27,700 OPENAI (total value about $20 million)
