SpaceX’s $300M Bitcoin Stack Puts Crypto Inside the World’s Biggest Planned IPO

The Elon Musk–run company is moving ahead with plans for an initial public offering that would seek to raise “significantly more than $30 billion.” Even relatively small balance-sheet allocations matter at that scale.

SpaceX IPO could impact bitcoin (Modified by CoinDesk)

What to know:

  • SpaceX is planning an IPO by 2026, potentially valuing the company at $1.5 trillion.
  • The company holds significant cryptocurrency assets, including bitcoin and dogecoin.
  • Elon Musk's influence in crypto markets is notable, with SpaceX's IPO potentially expanding his reach in AI and crypto infrastructure.

SpaceX is working toward a stock-market listing that could value the company at around $1.5 trillion, making it the biggest public market offering by that metric, according to Bloomberg.

If that happens, investors won’t just be buying into rockets and satellites. They’ll also be buying into a company that holds thousands of bitcoin and has already used dogecoin to fund a mission to the Moon.

A Bloomberg report late Tuesday said the Elon Musk–run company is moving ahead with plans for an initial public offering that would seek to raise “significantly more than $30 billion,” targeting a valuation in the region of $1.5 trillion and a listing as soon as mid-to-late 2026.

At that scale, even small balance-sheet allocations matter.

Arkham Intelligence, a blockchain analytics firm that tracks identified entities, shows a wallet cluster labeled “SpaceX” holding about 3,991 BTC, worth roughly $369 million at a bitcoin price of around $92,500.

The addresses are tagged as being held via Coinbase Prime custody, and the balance history chart indicates the holding has fluctuated over the past several years – rising sharply during the 2021–2022 bull market, then dropping and later rebuilding through 2024 and 2025.

Recent transfers in Arkham’s view show large internal movements on bitcoin’s base layer, with two transactions of just over 1,000 BTC each in the past week, alongside smaller flows between Coinbase Prime and addresses in the cluster.

It's worth noting that these transfers could be internal transfers, as opposed to any buys or sells.

While the deal is still more than a year away and contingent on market conditions, Musk’s proximity to crypto continues to amplify every development.

Musk’s influence on dogecoin is well documented, from him posting memes that moved markets to SpaceX accepting the token for its DOGE-1 lunar mission.

His companies were among the earliest institutional bitcoin adopters, with renewables tech company Tesla reporting over 11,000 BTC holdings on its balance sheet.

A SpaceX IPO would give him fresh capital for Starlink expansion and chip-heavy space data centers, potentially broadening his influence in sectors that intersect with both AI and crypto infrastructure.

Meanwhile, early data from prediction market Polymarket show growing confidence that SpaceX’s valuation at IPO could exceed $1 trillion, with traders assigning a 67% probability that the market cap surpasses the benchmark as of early Wednesday.

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach

The post UK Looks to US to Adopt More Crypto-Friendly Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The UK and US are reportedly preparing to deepen cooperation on digital assets, with Britain looking to copy the Trump administration’s crypto-friendly stance in a bid to boost innovation.  UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves and US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent discussed on Tuesday how the two nations could strengthen their coordination on crypto, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter.  The discussions also involved representatives from crypto companies, including Coinbase, Circle Internet Group and Ripple, with executives from the Bank of America, Barclays and Citi also attending, according to the report. The agreement was made “last-minute” after crypto advocacy groups urged the UK government on Thursday to adopt a more open stance toward the industry, claiming its cautious approach to the sector has left the country lagging in innovation and policy.  Source: Rachel Reeves Deal to include stablecoins, look to unlock adoption Any deal between the countries is likely to include stablecoins, the Financial Times reported, an area of crypto that US President Donald Trump made a policy priority and in which his family has significant business interests. The Financial Times reported on Monday that UK crypto advocacy groups also slammed the Bank of England’s proposal to limit individual stablecoin holdings to between 10,000 British pounds ($13,650) and 20,000 pounds ($27,300), claiming it would be difficult and expensive to implement. UK banks appear to have slowed adoption too, with around 40% of 2,000 recently surveyed crypto investors saying that their banks had either blocked or delayed a payment to a crypto provider.  Many of these actions have been linked to concerns over volatility, fraud and scams. The UK has made some progress on crypto regulation recently, proposing a framework in May that would see crypto exchanges, dealers, and agents treated similarly to traditional finance firms, with…
