  • SpaceX Discloses Holding 18,712 Bitcoin Worth $1.45 Billion
    May 21, 2026, 6:32 PM EDT. SpaceX has disclosed holding 18,712 bitcoin, valued at about $1.45 billion, in an SEC filing, significantly more than previously estimated. The company acquired the bulk of its bitcoin around 2021, costing roughly $661 million, resulting in a $955 million paper gain in 2024 despite a later unrealized loss. This positions SpaceX as the seventh-largest corporate bitcoin holder among public firms, exceeding Coinbase's stash by over 2,000 coins. Elon Musk's Tesla also holds 11,509 bitcoin but has sold much of its original holdings. Tesla briefly accepted bitcoin payments in 2021 but halted due to environmental concerns, although debates about renewable mining energy continue. Musk favors Dogecoin personally, though neither Tesla nor SpaceX hold it on their balance sheets.
