This market will resolve according to the company which owns the model which has the highest arena rank based off the Chatbot Arena LLM Leaderboard (https://lmarena.ai/) when the table under the "Leaderboard" tab is checked on December 31, 2026, 12:00 PM ET. Results from the "Rank" section on the Leaderboard tab of https://lmarena.ai/leaderboard/text with the 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 first 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 resolve based on the first check after it becomes available. If it becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve based on another resolution source.Anthropic's Claude series, including recent Opus 5 and Fable 5 variants, drives the 66.5% market-implied probability through sustained leadership on 2026 leaderboards such as Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, LMSYS Arena Elo, and coding benchmarks like SWE-bench Verified. Traders cite superior agentic reasoning, 1M-token context handling, and reliability that propelled enterprise adoption past OpenAI by April 2026. OpenAI's GPT-5.6 family trails at 11% amid competitive but narrower gains in general tasks, while xAI and Google cluster lower due to less consistent frontier results. With several months remaining, ongoing releases and benchmark saturation could shift positioning, though Anthropic's momentum currently anchors trader consensus.
