SpaceX Bitcoin transfer activity has resumed after three months of silence, and right now it’s drawing attention across crypto markets. On October 21, Elon Musk’s aerospace company moved around $268 million worth of Bitcoin—the first major movement since July. The SpaceX Bitcoin transfer involved 2,395 BTC split between two wallets, and analysts are viewing it as an internal reshuffle rather than a sale to exchanges.

SpaceX Bitcoin Transfer Highlights Corporate Holdings And Market Trends
The SpaceX Bitcoin transfer was split into two parts at the time of writing. Around 1,298 BTC worth $139.7 million was sent to one address. At the same time, 1,197 BTC valued at approximately $128.8 million went to another wallet. Both addresses remain inactive with no outflows recorded, according to SpaceX latest news reports.
Before the main Bitcoin transfer, two small test transactions of $150 and also $177 were executed from Coinbase Prime. This is pretty standard custody protocol for large moves. The original wallet still holds 5,790 BTC worth around $625 million. The company’s total corporate Bitcoin holdings stayed at 8,285 BTC.
Understanding SpaceX’s Bitcoin Position
SpaceX started accumulating Bitcoin back in 2021 but sold roughly 70% of its position during the 2022 Terra-Luna collapse and the FTX market turmoil. Since then, the Elon Musk Bitcoin holdings at SpaceX have remained steady at 8,285 BTC—now worth more than $1.1 billion with unrealized gains exceeding $621 million.
The last time the company moved coins was in July 2025, which sparked speculation on social media. But just like this week’s SpaceX Bitcoin transfer, no sales to exchanges were detected by blockchain analysts. This pattern suggests ongoing treasury management rather than market exit strategies.
Bitcoin did dip below $108,000 during the Bitcoin transfer window. This decline was attributed to broader factors such as U.S.-China trade tensions and ETF outflows. At press time, Bitcoin was trading at $107,805 with daily volume hitting $61.3 billion. However, some sources reported prices around $112,340 with a 3.44% gain.
What’s notable here is that large corporate Bitcoin holdings transfers used to trigger panic selling in earlier market cycles. But Bitcoin has matured as an asset, and such movements are now viewed more rationally by traders and investors.

What This Means for Corporate Bitcoin Strategy
The SpaceX latest news indicates that the company is among the biggest privately held ones, along with Tesla and Strategy. Another Elon Musk venture is Tesla, which is the largest corporate owner of Bitcoin at the moment with more than 11, 500 BTC. The format of this most recent SpaceX transfer of Bitcoins indicates advanced treasury administration methods. Making test transactions with Coinbase Prime, and moving the money into various wallets- institutional-scale security features have become the standard in large corporate Bitcoin holdings. Bitcoin traders on platforms such as X have been conjecturing whether this Bitcoin transfer suggests that there is some arrangement of a new custody or perhaps institutional co-operation.
The majority concur that it is merely a continuation of the portfolio management approach that the company has always pursued and not a message on the selling pressure. The very fact that both addresses used as receiving addresses are idle, and none of the money was transferred to exchanges indicates that the company has a long-term investment in Bitcoin. It is in accordance with the overall pattern of corporations viewing Bitcoin as a treasury asset, but not a speculative vehicle at this point in time.
