Recent data from Arkham Intelligence reveals that SpaceX, the aerospace company founded by tech billionaire Elon Musk, holds a substantial amount of Bitcoin.
This week, SpaceX achieved a major milestone by completing its first commercial spacewalk. The event featured Sarah Gillis, a SpaceX engineer and American entrepreneur, venturing into space at over 700 kilometers above Earth.
The achievement garnered significant attention and praise on X, the social media platform owned by Musk.
In addition, Musk has announced plans to advance space exploration further. He aims to send uncrewed spacecraft to Mars within two years, aligning with the period when Earth and Mars will be closest.
If successful, crewed missions could follow, with the goal of establishing a self-sustaining colony on Mars. Musk has expressed frustration over the bureaucratic obstacles facing SpaceX’s upcoming trials.
Meanwhile, SpaceX, like Musk’s other company Tesla, holds a notable Bitcoin reserve. According to Arkham Intelligence, SpaceX’s Bitcoin holdings are valued at approximately $500 million.
Bitcoin may be gearing up for another rally, and one key macro trend could be the driving force: a surge in global liquidity.
Bitcoin briefly surged past $86,000 on Tuesday, reaching levels not seen since early April, before slipping back slightly.
The Trump administration is exploring the idea of leveraging tariff revenues to build a national Bitcoin reserve, signaling a broader shift in how digital assets could be integrated into U.S. economic policy.
Public companies ramped up their Bitcoin holdings in early 2025, with total corporate reserves growing by more than 95,000 BTC in the first quarter alone, according to data shared by Bitwise.
