OpenAI

Growth Insight

OpenAI raised $40 billion in a funding round led by SoftBank, valuing the company at $300 billion. This funding round marked the largest private tech funding round in history. The investment will support OpenAI's ongoing projects, including the development of AI technologies and infrastructure expansion. OpenAI's revenue is projected to triple to $12.7 billion in 2025, up from $3.7 billion in 2024, driven by the adoption of its AI products, particularly ChatGPT. The company also reported a significant increase in its user base, reaching approximately 800 million users, with ChatGPT becoming the most downloaded app globally in March 2025, surpassing TikTok and Instagram. Additionally, OpenAI's ChatGPT service saw a 30% increase in revenue over three months, growing from $333 million to $415 million monthly, attributed to a rise in paid subscribers from 15.5 million to over 20 million. Despite these successes, OpenAI is facing financial challenges, projecting losses of $5 billion against revenues of $3.7 billion in 2024 due to high operational costs associated with its AI services.

Coinbase completed a $2.9 billion acquisition of Deribit, a leading crypto options exchange, positioning Coinbase as the world's largest crypto derivatives platform by open interest and options activity.
