Analysis: On-chain data did not show large-scale selling by investors of cryptocurrency assets to participate in the SpaceX IPO
BlockBeats News, June 6th, despite market speculation that some retail investors may sell Bitcoin to participate in SpaceX's record-breaking $75 billion IPO, stablecoin flows and on-chain data show that there is currently no sign of large-scale fund outflows from the crypto market.
The SpaceX IPO is valued at approximately $1.8 trillion, with up to 30% of the shares allocated to retail investors through platforms such as an exchange, significantly higher than the typical 10% allocation to individual investors in traditional IPOs. Following the start of the roadshow, the demand for subscriptions has exceeded the issuance size.
Data shows that the outflows of USDT and USDC remain within normal ranges since February, with no signs of abnormal redemptions or supply contraction. On the contrary, on June 6th, around 66,470 BTC and 2.49 million ETH were net outflows from exchanges, indicating that more investors are moving assets to private wallets, showing a buy-the-dip signal rather than a mass cash-out.
However, on-chain data cannot reflect the trading activity of users within platforms such as an exchange, so it is still necessary to wait for relevant brokerages to release data to determine if any crypto investors have sold assets to subscribe to SpaceX shares.
The most significant outflows of funds currently come from spot ETFs. Data shows that as of June 3rd, the US Bitcoin spot ETF has seen net outflows for 13 consecutive trading days, totaling around $4.4 billion in redemptions; the Ethereum spot ETF has experienced fund outflows for 17 consecutive trading days before returning to a slight net inflow.
According to the plan, SpaceX is set to complete pricing on June 11th and will debut on the Nasdaq on June 12th under the stock ticker symbol SPCX.

Updated version 1 - Reports indicate Firmus is considering adjusting its $5 billions IPO plan, while Australia's Maas Group shares plunged 30%.
Reuters, October 8 – On Thursday, Maas Group's (MGH.AX) shares plummeted by as much as 30% following reports that Nvidia (NVDA.O)-backed AI company Firmus is considering adjusting the terms of its much-anticipated $5 billion IPO. The stock fell to AUD 4.47, marking its largest intraday drop and the lowest point since May 6, wiping about AUD 694 million ($483.37 million) off the construction services company’s market capitalization. Key details: - Maas holds a 3.2% stake in the data center operator and had previously pledged an additional AUD 300 million at a per-share price of AUD 230 for both common and preferred stock earlier in August (link). - In an exchange filing, Maas stated that speculation about whether the IPO would proceed as scheduled has put market sentiment under pressure and added that it is not aware of any undisclosed information to explain the trading situation. - Firmus lists OpenAI as an anchor customer and is preparing what would be the second-largest IPO in Australian history (link). Reports earlier this week suggested the company might lower its offering price from AUD 11 per share. - If this listing proceeds smoothly, it would be Australia’s largest IPO in nearly 30 years, second only to the approximately $10 billion IPO by leading telecom operator Telstra (TLS.AX) in 1997. - Prior to Thursday’s sharp drop, Maas Group’s shares had already risen about 44% over the past 12 months, with investors valuing its link to AI-driven data center construction. - Firmus has not yet responded to Reuters’ request for comment.
