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.

Crypto whale loses $6M to sneaky phishing scheme targeting staked Ethereum

The post Crypto whale loses $6M to sneaky phishing scheme targeting staked Ethereum appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A crypto whale lost more than $6 million in staked Ethereum (stETH) and Aave-wrapped Bitcoin (aEthWBTC) after approving malicious signatures in a phishing scheme on Sept. 18, according to blockchain security firm Scam Sniffer. According to the firm, the attackers disguised their move as a routine wallet confirmation through “Permit” signatures, which tricked the victim into authorizing fund transfers without triggering obvious red flags. Yu Xian, founder of blockchain security company SlowMist, noted that the victim did not recognize the danger because the transaction required no gas fees. He wrote: “From the victim’s perspective, he just clicked a few times to confirm the wallet’s pop-up signature requests, didn’t spend a single penny of gas, and $6.28 million was gone.” How Permit exploits work Permit approvals were originally designed to simplify token transfers. Instead of submitting an on-chain approval and paying fees, a user can sign an off-chain message authorizing a spender. That efficiency, however, has created a new attack surface for malicious players. Once a user signs such a permit, attackers can combine two functions—Permit and TransferFrom—to drain assets directly. Because the authorization takes place off-chain, wallet dashboards show no unusual activity until the funds move. As a result, the assets are gone when the approval executes on-chain, and tokens are redirected to the attacker’s wallet. This loophole has made permit exploits increasingly attractive for malicious actors, who can siphon millions without needing complex hacks or high-cost gas wars. Phishing losses The latest theft highlights a wider trend of escalating phishing campaigns. Scam Sniffer reported that in August alone, attackers stole $12.17 million from more than 15,200 victims. That figure represented a 72% jump in losses compared with July. According to the firm, the most significant share of August’s damages came from three large accounts that accounted for nearly half…
