A Bitcoin wallet attributed to SpaceX recorded its first on-chain activity in six months after making a test transaction worth approximately $88 in BTC on <a href="https://arkm.com/explorer/tx/d2be42cceb7ca86e79d85d8b38ba2539ea4137b3cbafad2b8819e39a258ceb0d" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">July 7, 2026, at 23:19:24 UTC</a>.
Blockchain data shows the transfer originated from the SpaceX-linked address 15atF and was sent to another wallet identified as belonging to the company, bc1q9. The transaction appears to be an internal transfer between SpaceX-controlled addresses rather than a movement to an exchange or an external counterparty.
The transaction is notable because it represents the first recorded activity from the address since early 2026. No accompanying statement has been issued by SpaceX explaining the purpose of the transfer, and there is no on-chain evidence indicating a sale or reduction of the company’s Bitcoin treasury at the time of writing. The reported movement was limited to a small-value test transaction.

<a href="https://cryip.co/michael-saylor-mag8-bitcoin-spacex/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SpaceX currently holds 18,712 BTC</a>, making it one of the largest known corporate Bitcoin holders. The figure was officially disclosed during the company’s IPO process earlier this year and significantly exceeded earlier on-chain estimates that had placed the company’s holdings closer to 8,000 BTC.
The latest wallet activity does not indicate any change to the company’s reported Bitcoin holdings. Instead, the transfer appears to be an operational movement between company-controlled addresses, with the disclosed treasury remaining unchanged following the transaction.
The small transfer also differs from previous large-scale Bitcoin movements historically associated with SpaceX. Earlier wallet reorganizations involved transfers of thousands of BTC between custody addresses, whereas the latest transaction involved only a nominal amount, commonly used to verify wallet access or test new receiving addresses.

The Bitcoin transaction comes after several significant developments involving SpaceX over the past few months. In late May, Binance expanded access to private market exposure by launching <a href="https://cryip.co/binance-spacex-pre-ipo-perpetual-futures-launch/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">SpaceX Pre-IPO Perpetual Futures</a>. During the second week of June, investors participating in tokenized SpaceX share offerings across platforms including Binance, Bybit, Kraken, and Bitget received refunds after <a href="https://cryip.co/spacex-ipo-allocation-shortfall-triggers-refunds-across-binance-bybit-kraken-and-bitget-platforms/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">IPO allocation shortages</a> prevented full order fulfillment.
Later in June, a separate tokenized SpaceX offering was canceled, resulting in nearly <a href="https://cryip.co/spacex-tokenized-offering-collapses-as-nearly-1-billion-in-orders-are-refunded/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$1 billion</a> in customer order refunds. More recently, SpaceX has also been reported to be pursuing a $60 billion acquisition of AI coding startup Cursor following its historic public listing.
