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.

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.

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
