#PreIPOsSeason2OpenAISubscription
OpenAI subscription opens in a day, and Gate's Pre-IPOs structure makes it accessible without needing venture capital scale or institutional connections.
The Details
The round offers 27,700 OPENAI asset certificates at $722 per token, representing a total subscription pool of roughly $20 million. Participants can subscribe using USDT or GUSD with a minimum of just $100, using either currency.
The $722 pricing maps to an implied valuation of about $895 billion, a modest ~5% premium above OpenAI's last institutional funding round in March 2026 at $852 billion. For reference, CEO Sam Altman is reportedly targeting a $1 trillion valuation for the eventual IPO.
The Incentives
There are three extras worth noting:
· GT Airdrops: All subscribers receive GT rewards.
· VIP5+ and Super Agent Bonuses: Higher-tier users get additional airdrops.
· GUSD Minting Yield: If you subscribe with GUSD, you earn 3.8% APY on your commitment.
How Allocation Works
Your allocation is based on hourly average locked amount, not just a snapshot at the end. The earlier you commit and the longer you keep funds locked during the 48-hour subscription window, the higher your allocation weight.
Unlock Schedule
Distributed tokens unlock in three phases:
· 25% unlocked on July 17
· 35% unlocked on August 17
· 40% unlocked on September 17
Pre-Market Trading
Pre-market trading opens July 20, 16:00 (UTC+8), giving you an exit before the final unlock completes.
Risk Considerations
OPENAI certificates are mirror notes, not actual OpenAI equity. OpenAI remains private with no confirmed IPO date. The product carries the same risks as any Pre-IPO structure: valuation uncertainty, liquidity constraints, and the possibility that OpenAI never lists or experiences a value decline.
