Key Highlights

  • SpaceX went public on 6/12; SEC filing discloses holding 18,712 BTC, valued at about $1.18 billion at current prices of around $63,000
  • Average purchase price approximately $35,320, with unrealized gains close to double, making it the 8th largest Bitcoin holder among public companies
  • Including Tesla’s 11,509 BTC, Musk’s two companies combined hold 30,221 BTC, potentially ranking 5th globally

Elon Musk’s SpaceX completed the largest IPO in history on June 12, listing on NASDAQ under the ticker SPCX.
On the first day, the stock closed at $160.95, up about 19%, with a market capitalization surpassing $2 trillion.
But for the crypto community, the real surprise lies in its SEC filing, which reveals SpaceX holds 18,712 BTC.

Based on Bitcoin’s current price of approximately $63,000, this stash is worth about $1.18 billion.
More importantly, the cost basis is around $35,320, meaning the unrealized gains are nearly double.
This position elevates SpaceX to the 8th largest Bitcoin holder among publicly traded companies worldwide.

The combined holdings of the two companies represent another scale.

What truly catches the eye is putting Musk’s two companies side by side.
Tesla currently holds 11,509 BTC, and SpaceX’s 18,712 BTC bring Musk’s total holdings to 30,221 BTC.

If these assets were consolidated on a single balance sheet, the total would be enough to rank as the 5th largest Bitcoin holder among global public companies.
Market analysts have long been calculating this figure, with rumors that Musk is considering merging Tesla and SpaceX into a $3 trillion super-entity.
If that happens, the new company would hold a base of 30k BTC from day one.

  • SpaceX: 18,712 BTC, 8th largest public company Bitcoin holder
  • Tesla: 11,509 BTC
  • Total: 30,221 BTC, potentially 5th largest globally
  • Average cost around $35,320, current value approximately $63,000, with nearly double unrealized gains

Interestingly, neither of Musk’s companies has ever publicly announced a “Bitcoin strategic reserve” slogan, unlike Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy), which makes Bitcoin accumulation its core business.
But combined, their holdings already rival those of dedicated Bitcoin treasury companies.
