On June 12, several crypto trading platforms reported allocation disruptions tied to SpaceX IPO-themed offerings as retail demand surged. Binance and Bybit said they canceled or refunded parts of their campaigns after they were unable to secure enough underlying shares, while some Robinhood users also reported partial fills.

Binance has added bStocks Tokenized Security SpaceX (SPCXB) to its lineup, introducing a SpaceX-linked tokenized security to users of the exchange. The product is described as 1:1 backed with 24/7 trading and is positioned as tokenized exposure rather than direct ownership of SpaceX equity.

Bybit, Binance and Bitget have withdrawn their planned allocations for tokenized exposure to SpaceX's IPO after failing to obtain enough underlying shares, and each says affected users will be refunded. Bybit said Friday it will return all subscription funds and add a 10% consolation reward, while Binance said it will refund locked USDC and distribute a share of a $1 million airdrop tied to its upcoming SPCXB token.

SpaceX began trading on Wall Street under the SPCX ticker after selling 556 million shares at $135 each, with the stock opening at $150 and later swinging as high as $170 before slipping below $160. The IPO raised $75 billion and pushed SpaceX's market capitalization above $2 trillion, placing it ninth globally at the time of reporting. The newly assigned trillion-dollar valuation also lifted Elon Musk's paper wealth, with one post claiming he became the world's first trillionaire.

Kalshi's rollout of CFTC-regulated crypto perpetual contracts has reopened a long-standing argument over how the instruments should be classified in U.S. markets. Market veterans are split on whether perpetuals align more with futures—exchange-traded and centrally cleared—or with swaps, given their funding-rate cash-flow mechanics. The answer could shape who can trade them and what rules apply, while concerns about manipulation around funding-rate calculations remain a key point of contention.

World Cup winner contracts on Polymarket and Kalshi exceeded $2 billion in combined volume, while Polymarket also saw added activity in contracts tied to SpaceX's listing.

BlackRock put in an order for at least $5Bn of SpaceX shares ahead of the company's Nasdaq debut on Friday, as the $75Bn offering attracted roughly $250Bn in total demand. SpaceX priced 555,555,555 shares at $135 on Thursday, implying an approximately $1.77 trillion valuation and positioning the deal as the largest public offering on record. Retail orders were said to exceed $70Bn, suggesting many investors may receive only partial allocations.
