SpaceX went public in June 2026 with the largest IPO ever, raising $75 billion at a $1.75 trillion valuation. The company disclosed holding 18,712 Bitcoin worth about $1.29 billion, embedding indirect Bitcoin exposure in its stock. This means index funds and pensions buying SpaceX shares gain passive Bitcoin exposure, legitimizing BTC as a corporate asset. However, the Bitcoin holding is a tiny fraction of SpaceX's value, so it likely won't create a meaningful price floor. The IPO also competed for investment capital, temporarily weighing on crypto prices. The long-term impact may be increased Bitcoin institutionalization, especially if other companies follow SpaceX's example or if a Tesla merger concentrates more BTC under Elon Musk.
