<p dir="ltr">On-chain data analytics platform Arkham Intelligence recently disclosed the combined Bitcoin holdings owned by Elon Musk’s firms, Tesla and SpaceX. The disclosure comes amid rising momentum in the price of Bitcoin (BTC) following the 50 basis points rate cut&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-surges-as-fed-goes-for-massive-rate-cut" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">implemented</a> by the U.S. Federal Reserve earlier this month.</p>

<p dir="ltr">According to Arkham, Tesla and SpaceX currently&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/ArkhamIntel/status/1839672456467873915" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">possess</a> Bitcoin worth $1.30 billion in their reserves. This large Bitcoin stash indicates Elon Musk’s bullish stance on the leading digital asset. The $1.3 equates to approximately 19,788 BTC coins at Bitcoin's current market price.</p>

 <p lang="en" dir="ltr">Elon Musk’s companies, Tesla and SpaceX, own a combined $1.30B in Bitcoin. <a href="https://t.co/GhrwcDlixw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/GhrwcDlixw</a></p>— Arkham (@ArkhamIntel) <a href="https://twitter.com/ArkhamIntel/status/1839672456467873915?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">September 27, 2024</a>
</blockquote>
<p dir="ltr">Arkham's findings suggest that Tesla's Bitcoin holdings have exceeded the previously reported figure. Arkham reported that Tesla held $780 million worth of BTC in March. The data also shows SpaceX possesses a sizable Bitcoin treasure chest valued at approximately $560 million.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Tesla's foray into Bitcoin began in February 2021 when the firm&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/teslas-bitcoin-bet-more-profitable-than-full-year-of-car-sales" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">bought $1.5 billion</a>. The firm said the Bitcoin purchase was to help further diversify and maximize returns on its cash. Tesla also said it will start accepting payments in Bitcoin in exchange for its products, subject to applicable laws.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Elon Musk also revealed SpaceX’s Bitcoin holdings in 2021 at “The B Word” online conference. “I do own Bitcoin, Tesla owns Bitcoin, SpaceX owns Bitcoin,” Musk&nbsp;<a href="https://u.today/heres-how-much-btc-elon-musks-spacex-owns-details" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">stated</a>.</p>
<h2 id="current-state-of-bitcoin-market">Current state of Bitcoin market</h2>
<p dir="ltr">Bitcoin surged to an intraday high of $66,439 on Friday, per CoinGecko. Bitcoin has since shed some gains. However, positive sentiments continue, with the coin now stabilized at the $65,000 price range.</p>
<p dir="ltr">At press time, the BTC price was $65,765, up 0.36% in the past day and 4.4% in the past week. However, the 24-hour trading volume registered a tempered outlook, experiencing a 33% decline.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Nevertheless, Bitcoin is now on course to secure its best September despite expectations of a bad month.</p>
