🚨 Elon Musk’s SpaceX Drops Bombshell: Holds 18,712 BTC Worth $1.45 Billion! 🔥
Bitcoin News Today | May 2026
Breaking: SpaceX has officially revealed its massive Bitcoin holdings in its S-1 IPO filing with the SEC — and it’s way bigger than anyone expected!
The rocket company led by Elon Musk holds 18,712 Bitcoin (BTC), currently valued at approximately $1.45 Billion.
Key Highlights:
Purchase Cost: Bought at an average price of ~$35,324 per BTC (total cost basis around $661 million)
Unrealized Gains: Strong paper profit of nearly 119%
Ranking: Makes SpaceX one of the top 7 corporate Bitcoin holders globally among public companies
Surprise Factor: Previous on-chain estimates were only around 8,000–8,300 BTC — this disclosure shows more than double the expected amount!
This positions SpaceX ahead of its sister company Tesla (which holds around 11,509 BTC) and even beats Coinbase’s holdings.
Why SpaceX Holds Bitcoin
SpaceX has been quietly accumulating Bitcoin for years. Elon Musk previously confirmed the company holds BTC on its balance sheet, but the exact number stayed secret until this IPO filing. The holdings are managed through third-party custodians for security.
This move comes as SpaceX prepares for its highly anticipated public listing (ticker expected: SPCX), potentially valuing the company in the hundreds of billions.
Impact on Crypto Market
Strengthens institutional confidence in Bitcoin as a treasury asset
Shows big tech/aerospace companies are still bullish on BTC long-term
Adds more legitimacy to corporate Bitcoin adoption alongside MicroStrategy, Tesla, and others
Elon Musk Effect: With both Tesla and SpaceX holding significant BTC, Musk continues to be one of the biggest indirect Bitcoin influencers in the world.
