SpaceX and Tesla Merger Talks Put Corporate Bitcoin Holdings Under Scrutiny

• A SpaceX–Tesla merger could combine nearly $1.7B in Bitcoin holdings.
• The move may raise investor concerns as crypto volatility remains high.

Talks were going around for a possible merger involving SpaceX and Tesla, which drew major attention to a share of Bitcoin assets. Together, SpaceX and Tesla hold nearly 20,000 Bitcoin worth around $1.7 billion. If the Merger happens, then this Bitcoin holding would come under one structure, which will be one of the largest corporate Bitcoin holdings in the world.

Total Holdings of Bitcoin

SpaceX holds approximately 8,285 Bitcoin, which is worth around $680 million, and Tesla holds about 11,509 Bitcoin, which is worth around $1 billion. If this were combined, then it would rank among the top corporate Bitcoin treasuries globally. This merger would affect how the assets are managed, reported, and reviewed by the investors. 

Tesla is a public company where the bitcoin price directly affects the earnings, but on the other hand, SpaceX remains private, which has not been required to publicly report gains or losses tied to Bitcoin. If SpaceX goes public, then the company would value around $1.5 trillion, and the bitcoin exposure would become more visible to the investors and regulators.

Tesla’s Bitcoin History

Tesla’s history with Bitcoin still influences the investor’s opinion. Tesla bought bitcoin in 2021, which was worth around $1.5 billion, and sold 75% immediately in 2022 near the market lows. In 2025, the Company reported a $239 million loss related to bitcoin after the price fell sharply. 

Right now, there is no confirmation yet about the merger, and there is no sign that SpaceX and Tesla plan to get involved in bitcoin. However, combining these holdings will raise questions about financial risk and transparency during the price volatility. 

This situation shows how Digital assets are embedded in the major technology firms. Whether the SpaceX merges with Tesla or remains independent, Bitcoin is already part of their balance sheets for the long term business strategy.
