This is absolutely insane:
The SpaceX IPO has now drawn more than $70 BILLION worth of retail orders alone.
SpaceX is raising $75 billion, making retail interest ALONE enough to nearly fill the entire sale.
To put this in perspective, the previous record IPO was Saudi Aramco in 2020 at $29.4 billion.
This means that retail interest in SpaceX is now 2.4 TIMES larger than the total amount raised in the previous largest IPO in history.
As a result, SpaceX has announced that 20% of their IPO will be allocated to retail investors, following through on @elonmusk's vision to democratize the record IPO.
Nothing even remotely near what SpaceX is about to do has ever happened.
Friday will be a historic day.

Rule changes for the SpaceX $SPCX IPO:
Index providers waived the profitability requirement and cut the seasoning window from 90 days to 5.
This forces over $30 trillion in passive 401k and retirement money to buy SpaceX at IPO valuations.
Bloomberg Intelligence estimates S&P 500 funds must absorb 19% of SpaceX's float within 6 months.
Russell 1000 and Nasdaq 100 funds will absorb 24%.
The rules built to protect passive investors:
1. S&P 500 has required 12 months of trading and 4 quarters of GAAP profitability since 2002. Both waived.
2. Nasdaq cut its inclusion window from 90 trading days to 15.
3. FTSE Russell cut its to 5.
All three benchmarks are now structured to buy SpaceX at IPO pricing.
SpaceX is now targeting a valuation of at least $1.8 trillion in its IPO, according to people familiar with the matter, as Elon Musk’s company promising data centers in space nears its debut. Read more: https://t.co/6MTdwfc9Gn

The Google Threat Intelligence Group has detected the first known instance of a threat actor using an AI-developed zero-day exploit in the wild. While the attackers planned a wide-scale strike, our proactive counter-discovery may have prevented that from happening. This finding is part of our new report on AI-powered threats.
We’ve been working towards this moment for a while.
Not just higher TPS. Not just faster finality.
But a system where performance, cost, and privacy are no longer trade-offs.
With Atlas on Memento:
execution becomes fast enough for real financial flows
finality becomes reliable enough for institutions
costs become irrelevant at scale
privacy becomes a native feature, not a workaround
This is the foundation we needed to move from experiments to real adoption.
The goal was never just to build another ZK chain.
It was to build infrastructure that:
→ asset managers can trust
→ institutions can actually use
→ products can scale on
And let’s be clear:
There is no other chain live today combining
native privacy (Prividium) + Ethereum-grade finality + independent infrastructure
at this level of performance.
Everyone talks about privacy.
Everyone talks about scalability.
Everyone talks about institutional adoption.
We built all three, in one stack.
Not bolted on. Not compromised. Not theoretical.
If you’re serious about bringing real financial products onchain,
there aren’t many places to go.
Now that layer is ready.
The next step is simple: build on top of it.
