Binance Launches SpaceX Pre-IPO Perps Amid $2 Trillion Valuation Bets

The first contract tracks SpaceX and is margined in tether, giving retail traders early exposure to private-company valuations before public listings.

  • On Thursday, Binance launched perpetual futures contracts allowing users to trade Space Exploration Technologies Corp valuation ahead of its initial public offering.
  • Designed to provide retail traders early exposure to IPOs, the contracts reflect valuation signals after SpaceX filed its S-1 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday.
  • The SPCXUSDT Pre-IPO Perpetual contract launched May 18 with a $150 reference price, generating $33 million in trading volume on the first day alone.
  • Deepwater Asset Management's Gene Munster noted the SpaceX filing "sucked the air out of the NVDA quarter," while traders price in a 70% chance the IPO valuation exceeds $2 trillion.
  • While SpaceX offers a compelling 10-year growth story, Binance warned that pre-IPO contracts carry high risks and may be delisted if the IPO process is delayed or canceled.
