Nvidia and Hugging Face confirm the deal by September 30th
Why I called it
The Information reports the $12.9 billion agreement as done, four days after the sale exploration leaked, and neither company has said a word. If the reporting is right, the companies confirm within weeks, because a deal this size leaks worse unsigned than signed. The risk is choreography: counsel can hold an announcement past a month-end without the deal being any less real.
The call, in full. Nvidia or publicly announces a definitive agreement for Nvidia to acquire Hugging Face on or before September 30th 2026.
Scoring criterion. RESOLVES CORRECT if Nvidia or Hugging Face publicly announces a definitive acquisition agreement on or before 2026-09-30 23:59 UTC, per either company's own statement. RESOLVES WRONG otherwise.
The criterion is the machine-checkable version: a prediction that cannot be settled by a third party against a public source fails the build before it reaches this page.
