Anthropic holds a commanding market-implied lead at 69.5% for the top LiveBench Coding model by end of October 2026, reflecting trader confidence in its Claude series after strong July releases of Opus 5 and Fable 5 that posted leading scores on contamination-resistant coding evaluations such as SWE-bench Verified near 96% and competitive LiveBench category results. OpenAI trails at 26.5% following GPT-5.6 Sol and related variants that excel on some terminal and agentic tasks but lag on repository-scale coding benchmarks. Chinese labs like Alibaba’s Qwen and Z.ai models top certain LiveCodeBench snapshots yet receive minimal odds, suggesting traders view LiveBench Coding as favoring the sustained frontier progress and benchmark consistency from Anthropic over open-weight or regional releases. With no major model drops in the past month and October resolution approaching, upcoming earnings or capability updates from the two leaders represent the main near-term swing factors.

Results from the “Coding” column of the leaderboard at https://livebench.ai/#/?cats=Coding, with the latest available LiveBench release selected and the category set to “Coding,” will be used to resolve this market.
Models will be ranked according to the specified score, with higher scores ranked ahead of lower scores. If two or more models have exactly the same score as displayed on the leaderboard, the model with the lower listed "cost per successful task" will be ranked ahead. If a tie still 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 score and cost per successful task, “Google” would be ranked ahead of “SpaceXAI”). This market will resolve based on the company that occupies first place under this ranking.
The resolution source for this market is the LiveBench leaderboard. If this resolution source is unavailable at check time, this market will remain open until the leaderboard comes back online and will resolve based on the first check after it becomes available. If it becomes permanently unavailable, this market will resolve to “Other.”
