OpenAI recently secured a significant investment of $1.5 billion through a new offer. This investment allows its employees to sell their shares to SoftBank, enabling the Japanese multinational investment holding company to acquire a substantial stake in the firm. Given the expanding artificial intelligence industry, market observers are curious about the potential positive impact on AI coins.
OpenAI Employees Will Sell Shares Worth $1.5 Billion to SoftBank
According to a CNBC report dated November 27, OpenAI has granted its employees the right to sell shares worth $1.5 billion to SoftBank as part of the new offer. A tender offer is a proposal made by an entity to purchase shares from existing shareholders.
This offer could position the Japanese investment holding company as one of the largest stakeholders in the AI firm, while current and former employees of the Sam Altman-backed company consider monetizing their shares.
AI Coins Expected to Gain Value
As previously reported by CoinGape Media, OpenAI’s valuation has exceeded $157 billion after securing a recent $6.6 billion investment. However, neither party has confirmed details, which has sparked notable curiosity.
Crypto market observers welcomed the news positively, expressing optimism that AI coins will benefit from the industry’s advancements.
During a period when the broader crypto market is closely monitored, some popular AI coins like Injective (INJ), NEAR, TAO, and RENDER have experienced price increases, leading to speculation among market observers.
