OpenAI paused new sign-ups and upgrades to its $200 ChatGPT Pro 20x tier on September 10, 2026, after the September 3 launch of GPT-6 Astra drove unprecedented demand that strained compute capacity. The 20x plan, which delivers twenty times the usage limits of the $20 Plus tier plus priority access to frontier models, creates the heaviest infrastructure load, prompting the targeted restriction while lower tiers including the $100 Pro 5x option and API access remain open. Existing subscribers retain uninterrupted service, but cancellations prevent re-entry until the pause lifts. OpenAI has cited ongoing capacity expansion without providing a resumption timeline, a pattern seen in prior high-demand periods. Trader sentiment reflects uncertainty around infrastructure scaling speed versus sustained Astra interest, with resolution hinging on verifiable US availability through official channels.

This market will resolve to "Yes" if OpenAI resumes new subscriptions to the ChatGPT Pro 20x plan for US customers by the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No".
Subscriptions will be considered resumed when that plan is again generally available for purchase by new subscribers in the United States through the company's official channels. The availability of any other plan, including the ChatGPT Pro or Pro 5x plans, will not qualify. Resumption of upgrades for existing ChatGPT subscribers without new sign-ups will not qualify.
A qualifying plan must be the called "Pro 20x" or otherwise confirmed to be the same plan as the ChatGPT Pro 20x Plan by a consensus of credible reporting.
Private access limited to selected users or groups of users, a waitlist, or an invitation will not qualify. A change to the plan's name or price will not affect resolution, provided it remains OpenAI's highest-usage ChatGPT Pro tier. Unavailability in particular states resulting from legal or regulatory requirements will not prevent a "Yes" resolution.
The primary resolution source for this market will be OpenAI's official purchasing channels; however, official communications from the company's representatives or a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
