SpaceX holds this much Bitcoin ahead of its IPO

SpaceX, an American aerospace company founded by Elon Musk, is heading into what could be the largest Initial Public Offering (IPO) in history, with over $600 million in Bitcoin (BTC) on its balance sheet.

The company holds 8,285 Bitcoin, valued at approximately $637 million, according to data from Arkham Intelligence, analyzed by Finbold on May 18.

As such, the company ranks fourth in private companies holding Bitcoin, currently trailing Block.one, Tether Holdings Limited, and Stone Ridge Holdings Group, based on metrics from BitcoinTreasuries. SpaceX has held its current BTC position steady since June 2022, when it sold a portion of its holdings over a three-week period.

The company trimmed its Bitcoin exposure from a peak of roughly 28,000 coins, which represents a reduction of roughly 70%. In mid December 2025, SpaceX moved its BTC assets from one address to another named under the company’s name.

SpaceX’s Bitcoin bet heads into its historic IPO

After holding its Bitcoin for nearly five years, SpaceX could carry the position into the most anticipated IPO in history. The company is targeting a $1.75 trillion valuation and a $75 billion raise in the largest-ever public offering.

SpaceX is targeting a June 12, 2026, Nasdaq debut under the ticker SPCX. The company’s public S-1 is expected to drop as early as May 20, with the roadshow kicking off the week of June 8.

The company has held its Bitcoin through two bear and bull markets. As of press time, SpaceX was sitting on an unrealized profit of more than $360 million, as per updates from Arkham. In less than a month, the company could shift to compete with other publicly traded companies in accumulating Bitcoins, led by Strategy Inc. (MSTR).
