Analyst: Tesla-SpaceX merger could bring 30K BTC into S&P 500 exposure
- —Tesla and SpaceX have each formed special committees to explore a merger
- —The two firms held a combined 30,221 BTC as of end-June 2026
- —SpaceX completed its IPO in June 2026 but its ~5% free float fails S&P 500 criteria
- —MSCI will publish its exclusion list of non-operating companies on Nov. 11
Why it matters: A merger could hand passive S&P 500 funds indirect bitcoin exposure without buying crypto ETFs.
