GPT model market jumps 18.5 points as whales back higher score odds

The probability that OpenAI’s next GPT hits a 1480 score by end-2026 climbed sharply with aligned whale buying and retail volume.

The market on whether the next GPT model released by OpenAI will debut at a score of at least 1480 by December 31, 2026, surged 18.5 percentage points in the past 24 hours, rising from 51.5% to 70.0% on Polymarket. This sizable repricing reflects increased confidence in the model’s performance ahead.

Whale activity supported the price move, with net inflows of $3K into YES contracts and total whale buy volume hitting $6K compared to $3K in sells, indicating a clear preference for the higher probability outcome. Forty unique whales participated in trades over the day, aligning their flow with the sharp rise in odds. Meanwhile, total 24-hour market volume stood at $6K, a significant portion of the market’s $31K lifetime volume, showing active engagement from both whales and retail traders, of whom 152 have participated over the market’s life.

Notably, there remains a gap between Polymarket’s YES price at 70.0% and Polydata’s on-chain mid-price of 53.0%, signaling some divergence in data sources or market segments. Still, the combined price jump and whale support suggest a strong shift in sentiment toward the likelihood that the upcoming GPT model will achieve the performance threshold by the end of 2026.
