SpaceX discloses 18,712 BTC in S-1, ranking 8th among public-company Bitcoin holders

ChainCatcher reports that Elon Musk's SpaceX has officially listed, and its S-1 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shows the company holds 18,712 BTC. At an estimated Bitcoin price of about $63,000, the position is worth roughly $1.18 billion, placing SpaceX as the world's eighth-largest corporate Bitcoin holder among public companies. The filing indicates SpaceX has carried the Bitcoin on its balance sheet for some time, with an average acquisition cost near $35,000 per BTC, implying sizable unrealized gains. Musk's other publicly traded company, Tesla, holds 11,509 BTC. Combined, SpaceX and Tesla hold 30,221 BTC; on a consolidated basis, that would rank fifth among public companies globally. SpaceX's IPO gives traditional portfolios a new, indirect channel for Bitcoin exposure and highlights the continuing adoption of Bitcoin as a corporate treasury asset.
