A historic stock market debut is imminent, with SpaceX's $75 billion IPO expected to take place in June, potentially impacting crypto markets. The company, along with OpenAI and Anthropic, is set to raise massive amounts of capital, exceeding the combined total of every venture-backed US IPO since 2000. This significant capital pull may affect the liquidity that has been supporting bitcoin and crypto. According to experts, the IPOs could trigger a rotation out of equities, including crypto, as investors allocate their funds to these new listings.
The correlation between crypto and traditional assets, such as the Nasdaq and S&P 500, has been increasing, making crypto vulnerable to fluctuations in the broader market. The fact that SpaceX holds a significant amount of bitcoin, worth around $600 million, adds another layer of complexity to the situation. As the IPO approaches, it will be crucial to monitor whether crypto can maintain its momentum or if it will be impacted by the shifting liquidity landscape.
