Elon Musk to distribute SpaceX shares to children via Trump Accounts
Elon Musk has announced plans to distribute SpaceX shares to children throughout the U.S. next year, with the transfer facilitated by Trump Accounts.
Elon Musk has pledged to distribute SpaceX stock to children across the United States, a plan that President Donald Trump confirmed will be executed through the Trump Accounts platform. The proposal marks a significant development in the company's equity management.
According to analysis by CNBC, 72 million SpaceX shares carry a valuation of approximately $10.5 billion based on recent market pricing. Musk has signaled that this distribution is intended to be the first in a series of similar transfers.
The initiative has received backing from several notable figures, including investor Brad Gerstner, Michael and Susan Dell, and Ray and Barbara Dalio. SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell is also reported to be involved in the coordination of the plan, though specific regulatory and logistical details remain under scrutiny.
