Hypercall, an on-chain options platform built on Hyperliquid, plans to launch an IPO pre-option market linked to Anthropic, claiming it is the first such market. Trading is scheduled to launch on Monday, will operate 24/7, support small positions, and is only available in select non-U.S. jurisdictions, not for U.S. customers. The platform will support call options, put options, and more complex spread strategies. The related contracts are synthetic, cash-settled derivatives; traders will not hold actual Anthropic stock or receive voting rights, and settlement amounts are calculated based on the strike price and expiration reference price. Existing Anthropic-linked perpetual contracts on Hyperliquid will provide hedging channels for option market makers. Hypercall currently offers options linked to SpaceX, the S&P 500 index, Bitcoin, and Ethereum. Founder Jake Sylvestre previously revealed that the platform’s September options notional volume reached $536 million.

According to Bloomberg, a diplomat familiar with the negotiations revealed that the U.S. and Iran are moving closer to a potential breakthrough to end the conflict, with Tehran showing willingness to discuss nuclear program-related issues it had previously refused to address. The diplomat noted that Iran is reviewing a proposal on its nuclear activities put forward by Qatar, the main mediator. If Iran makes concessions on this matter, it could drive significant progress in the talks. Negotiations have been stalled since the collapse of a temporary peace agreement the two sides reached in June. U.S. President Trump recently held a phone call with Qatari leaders to discuss efforts to ease regional tensions, indicating Trump’s desire to end the conflict, which has been a key backdrop for the Democrats’ defeat of the Republicans in this week’s U.S. midterm elections.
