Stripe will go public (IPO) in the year 2050. (Stated humorously but as a concrete future date.)

Explanation

As of late 2025, Stripe has not completed an initial public offering and remains a privately held company; multiple recent overviews of the company and its anticipated IPO explicitly note that there is still no IPO date or SEC filing and that Stripe is not yet publicly traded. (fool.com)

Jason’s prediction was that “Stripe’s going public in 2050”, interpreted as a specific future IPO year. Because:

  • 2050 is still in the future relative to today (November 30, 2025), and
  • Stripe has not yet gone public in any other year (which would clearly falsify the 2050-specific prediction),

we can’t yet determine whether Stripe will in fact IPO in 2050 or at some other time (or never). Thus, the accuracy of the prediction cannot currently be evaluated and is best labeled inconclusive (too early to tell).
