The Binance Wallet campaign offering access to the SpaceX IPO received around $557 million in USDC commitments, demonstrating increasing interest in using blockchain technology for investing in private companies.
Data from Dune Analytics shows that over 27,600 unique digital addresses have committed funds to potentially receive SPCXx, a token representing shares in Elon Musk’s SpaceX before it becomes publicly traded. This large investment demonstrates growing public interest in using blockchain technology to invest in private company equity.
Retail investors dominated participation
Looking at the data from the blockchain, we see a split in how risk is spread among crypto users. Wealthy individuals initially provided most of the funding, but the large number of people participating in crypto is overwhelmingly made up of everyday, individual users.
Most of the participants – over 81% – contributed $20,000 or less, but collectively they only made up about 18% of the total funds raised. A much smaller group, those contributing between $20,000 and $100,000, represented around 17% of participants but provided more than half – 58% – of the total capital. The data also indicated significant investment from larger investors.
Although only 114 addresses contributed $500,000 or more, these wallets accounted for over 10% of all subscription funds. This shows that demand came from a wide range of both individual and larger investors, not just a small group of major players.
SpaceX’s Bitcoin balance sheet factor
Experts are observing increased interest in SpaceX, likely due to recent news revealing the company owns a significant amount of Bitcoin.
SpaceX recently disclosed in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it owns 18,712 Bitcoin, purchased in 2021 for around $661 million. Based on today’s prices, those holdings are now worth approximately $1.35 billion.
According to a recent filing, SpaceX hasn’t changed its Bitcoin holdings since 2024, making it one of the biggest corporate owners of Bitcoin worldwide. This announcement surprised many experts who track Bitcoin transactions and has increased SpaceX’s popularity with cryptocurrency investors. These investors see SpaceX not only as a company building important satellite and rocket technology, but also as a way to indirectly invest in a substantial Bitcoin reserve.
The RWA race intensifies across exchanges
Demand is increasing as major cryptocurrency platforms race to offer investors ways to invest in SpaceX. Exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken, along with others such as Bybit, OKX, Bitget, Robinhood, and Trade.xyz, are now providing different options for SpaceX exposure, including tokenized shares, investments in private markets, and opportunities to buy and sell shares on secondary markets.
Currently, Kraken and Bybit are two of the best platforms for investors looking to buy tokenized shares, similar to how they would in a traditional IPO.
The enthusiastic participation in Binance Wallet’s subscription event highlights a growing trend in the crypto world. More and more investors are looking for opportunities to invest in private companies that were previously only available to venture capital firms and wealthy individuals.
With improvements in how digital assets are created and managed, prominent companies like SpaceX are increasingly fueling demand for blockchain solutions in private markets.
This recent investment drive, with hundreds of millions of dollars pledged by tens of thousands of people, shows how digital assets, private equity, and traditional financial markets are increasingly coming together.
