💡 What the odds say
Most likely: Anthropic at about a 99% chance — almost certain.
The market is essentially a foregone conclusion with Anthropic at 99%, reflecting the current leaderboard where Anthropic's model is likely ranked third, and no recent news suggests any competitor is about to disrupt that position.
What's driving it
- • No recent headlines are available to explain the current odds; the market appears to be pricing in the existing Chatbot Arena leaderboard standings as of late July 2026.
Why the front-runners lead
- • Anthropic's model is currently ranked third on the Chatbot Arena leaderboard, making it the natural front-runner for this market.
- • The 99% odds imply that traders see no credible threat from any other company in the remaining days before the July 31 resolution.
Why it's still open
- • Meta, at 1%, could theoretically release a new model or update that jumps ahead of Anthropic, but no such release has been announced or hinted at in available data.
- • Any of the 26 candidates, including xAI or Alibaba, could surprise with a last-minute model launch, but the lack of recent headlines makes this scenario speculative.
What to watch
- • Any model release or leaderboard update before July 31, 2026, could shift rankings, but no specific events are known from the provided data.
- • The July 31 resolution date itself is a catalyst: if no new models appear, the current odds will likely hold.

How it resolves
Settled on-chain by UMA's optimistic oracle: once an outcome is clear, anyone can propose the result, which then enters a challenge window where it can be disputed with evidence before it finalizes.
⚖️ A proposed outcome can be disputed during a challenge window before it's final.
Resolution criteria
This market will resolve according to the company that owns the model that has the third-highest arena rank based on the Chatbot Arena LLM Leaderboard (https://lmarena.ai/) when the table under the "Leaderboard" tab is checked on July 31, 2026, 12:00 PM ET. Results from the "Rank" column under the "Text Arena | Overall" Leaderboard tab at https://lmarena.ai/leaderboard/text with style control off will be used to resolve this market. Models will be ordered primarily by their leaderboard rank at the market’s check time. If two or more models are tied on rank, they will be ordered by their Arena score, including any underlying, unrounded, granular values reflected in the data below the leaderboard. If a tie remains, alphabetical order of company names as listed in this market group will be used as a final tiebreaker (e.g., if the two models are tied by exact arena score, “Google” would be ranked ahead of “xAI”). This market will resolve based on the company that occupies third place under this ranking system. The resolution source for this market is the Chatbot Arena LLM Leaderboard found at https://lmarena.ai/. If this resolution source is unavailable at check time, this market will remain open until the leaderboard comes back online and will resolve based on the first check after it becomes available. If it becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve based on another resolution source.
ⓘ A market settles under its own written rules, which can lag what looks decided in the news — so the price may not move to 100% the moment an outcome seems obvious.

When will Starship flight 14 happen?
The field is extremely front-loaded: the top candidate (before 2027-04-01) commands 95% odds, and all ten candidates above 5% stack into the next nine months, reflecting a market consensus that Flight 14 is imminent but not immediate. The largest recent shift is the collapse of near-term dates after the July 17 abort, when the 'before 2026-10-01' candidate dropped from ~80% to 71% following a second launch abort.
