SpaceX Preparing Confidential IPO Filing, Targets $1.75T+ Valuation

SpaceX is preparing a confidential draft registration with the U.S. SEC and could file as early as March, aiming to support a possible June IPO. Insiders say the company targets a valuation above $1.75 trillion and could raise tens of billions, citing roughly $15–16 billion in 2025 revenue and about $8 billion in profit that underpin recent private-transaction valuations. Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley are reported to be engaged for senior roles. Core strengths driving investor interest include Falcon 9 launch dominance, long-term U.S. government and NASA contracts, and rapid growth of the Starlink satellite broadband business. SpaceX has also integrated AI and cloud strategies — including the xAI acquisition and a Microsoft partnership pairing Starlink with cloud programs — and is preparing a new Starship test at Starbase. The confidential filing route lets SpaceX refine disclosures before a public listing. For crypto traders, the most relevant points are Starlink’s expanding role in global connectivity and partnerships that could increase demand for decentralized or blockchain-based telecom and cloud services, possible secondary-market activity around SpaceX-related private tokens or equity, and broader investor appetite for aerospace, satellite broadband and AI-linked assets that may shift capital flows across technology and crypto sectors.
Neutral
The news is neutral for cryptocurrency prices overall. It does not mention a specific cryptocurrency issuer being listed or token issuance tied directly to the IPO, so there is no immediate direct price catalyst for major cryptos like BTC or ETH. However, SpaceX’s Starlink expansion and partnerships (including AI and cloud integrations) could indirectly boost demand for blockchain-based telecommunications, decentralized identity or oracle services over the medium term. Traders might see short-term speculative flows into small-cap tokens tied to satellite, telecom or AI-blockchain projects if market participants interpret the IPO as validation of such sectors. Long-term, increased global connectivity from Starlink can broaden crypto adoption in underserved regions, a bullish structural tailwind for on-chain activity — but this is gradual and uncertain. Immediate market impact is therefore likely limited and temporary, making the classification neutral.
