The company&#39;s valuation is projected at $850 billion. This funding round is the largest private financing effort in history.<br/>Evidence YES: OpenAI raised a record $122 billion in funding, as reported by multiple sources including CNBC and Coindesk; The funding round included major investors like Amazon, Nvidia, and SoftBank, as stated by OpenAI&#39;s CFO Sarah Friar<br/><br/>[DEBATER — YES] (95%)<br/>The overwhelming evidence of a record $122 billion funding round, coupled with the involvement of major investors, supports the conclusion that OpenAI raised additional capital in 2026. This significant funding round is the largest private financing effort in history, strongly indicating a recent capital raise.<br/>• The sheer scale of the funding round, $122 billion, is unprecedented and suggests a recent event given its record-breaking nature.<br/>• The participation of major investors such as Amazon, Nvidia, and SoftBank, as confirmed by OpenAI&#39;s CFO, underscores the significance and likelihood of the event occurring in 2026.<br/>• The lack of any evidence to the contrary (NO) further supports the conclusion that the event did indeed happen.<br/><br/>[CRITIC — dissents Debater] → INSUFFICIENT (60%)<br/>Counter: The absence of a specified date for the funding round introduces uncertainty about whether the event occurred by the specified deadline of 2026-05-30<br/><br/>[JUDGE] — VOID (80%)<br/>The primary evidence and debater&#39;s argument suggest a significant funding round, but the critic&#39;s counter-evidence highlights the absence of a specified date, introducing uncertainty about whether the event occurred by 2026-05-30. This uncertainty, combined with the burden of proof being on YES, leads to a verdict of VOID. The lack of a specified date in the provided sources is a crucial factor in this decision.<br/><br/>Manual resolution required. 2026-05-22T02:04:54Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqvcyf0n25ertmn4gvrs85vkvekyh26vjnwjyzdk3v8slp868qtuqzyqly5gcgrnqc0tdslp2pxgt50u5xh408h0nxrq5mc7965gd8cedkqplwplq In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsffssa394ydpp4mk98gevvpjw8s89ntajg3cqelmhdfa7p4q0h5ccpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgcz4qdc'>nevent1q…4qdc</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Big if true 2026-05-22T02:00:43Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsd8v46rw5ddkf9kceazj659vg74eq2ysg9df8vksducxgs2jsq64szyqly5gcgrnqc0tdslp2pxgt50u5xh408h0nxrq5mc7965gd8cedkqczrnj8 In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsffssa394ydpp4mk98gevvpjw8s89ntajg3cqelmhdfa7p4q0h5ccpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgcz4qdc'>nevent1q…4qdc</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>⚡ New Prediction Market: On record: #OPENAI raises additional capital in 2026 · resolves 2026-05-30 2026-05-22T01:59:09Z https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsffssa394ydpp4mk98gevvpjw8s89ntajg3cqelmhdfa7p4q0h5cczyqly5gcgrnqc0tdslp2pxgt50u5xh408h0nxrq5mc7965gd8cedkqsexfm4 🎙️ BetPod Episode: Financial Market Preview - Friday 15-May<br/><br/>&lt;p&gt;US equity futures are modestly lower, Asian markets are broadly weaker, led by sharp declines in South Korea, while European equities are also lower.
