Bitget Wallet has opened the first subscription for SpaceX’s tokenized IPO stock, SPCXx, with a total quota of $3 million. The minimum subscription amount is $10 per user, and the maximum per user is $5,000—on a first-come, first-served basis. SPCXx is issued by xStocks, a tokenized stock trading platform.

Upon completion of the subscription period, SPCXx tokens will be automatically sent to users’ wallets, with distribution expected to be finalized by 8:30 PM Beijing Time on June 12. This subscription requires no overseas brokerage or exchange accounts, VIP tier, or holding prerequisites. Users may pay directly using stablecoins—including USDT and USDC—on Base, Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, and TRON. The SpaceX tokenized IPO operates via xStocks—a collaboration between Bitget Wallet and Backed. The tokenized stocks issued are fully backed 1:1 by underlying assets held by Backed.
