SpaceX shifted a fresh batch of Bitcoin this month, moving 1,021 BTC valued at about $94.48 million. The transfer flagged by Lookonchain and described as likely linked to Coinbase Prime. The move adds to a recent sequence of large transactions tied to wallets tracked as SpaceX-related.
SpaceX Bitcoin Transfers Follow a Repeat Pattern
In an X post, Lookonchain cited a similar move on Dec. 5, when more than 1,000 BTC was sent to a brand-new address with no prior activity. After the latest transfer, the company’s known Bitcoin stash still stands at about $368.8 million, according to Lookonchain. The platform also pointed to another major shift on Nov. 26.
That transfer was for 1,163 BTC and divided among two new wallets. 399 BTC was sent to one address and 764 BTC went to the other. Prior to those transfers, the huge Bitcoin transfer spotted by the platform was on Oct. 29 when 281 BTC exited a monitored wallet.

Musk Reflects on DOGE Role as IPO Plans Surface
The Bitcoin activity comes as Elon Musk spoke about his time leading the Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE. In a podcast interview with Katie Miller, Musk said the effort stopped some wasteful spending. He also said the initiative brought heavy backlash, both political and personal.
Musk said he would not return to DOGE. He said he wished he had spent that time focusing on Tesla and SpaceX instead. He also claimed Tesla faced vandalism and protests during the effort.
Bloomberg reported SpaceX is pursuing a record-breaking initial public offering. The report said the company hopes to raise more than $30 billion. It added the listing could come as soon as mid-to-late 2026.
The report added SpaceX is targeting a valuation of around $1.5 trillion. The recent insider share sales have already priced the company above $800 billion. It added that if SpaceX sells even 5% of its equity, the IPO would surpass all previous listings in size.
