Musk becomes first person in history to surpass $500 billion in net worth

PANews reported on October 2nd that the world's richest man, Elon Musk, has surpassed $500 billion in personal wealth, becoming the first person in history to cross this threshold.

According to the Forbes Rich List, as of 4:15 PM ET, Musk's net worth reached $500.1 billion, but has now fallen back below $500 billion. According to data from BitcoinTreasuries, Tesla currently holds 11,509 bitcoins, and SpaceX, another space technology company associated with Musk, holds 8,285 bitcoins.

Injective Launches Pre-IPO Futures, Trade OpenAI With Leverage

Injective Launches Pre-IPO Futures, Trade OpenAI With Leverage

The post Injective Launches Pre-IPO Futures, Trade OpenAI With Leverage appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Injective has introduced perpetual futures markets for private equity, opening direct exposure to fast-growing companies such as OpenAI, SpaceX, and Anthropic. The blockchain network announced Wednesday that retail traders can now speculate on valuations traditionally reserved for venture funds and private equity giants. The launch signals a radical shift in how investors approach high-profile private markets. Until now, access to shares in major pre-IPO firms was confined to institutions and select accredited investors. By putting these futures on-chain, Injective is betting on a surge of demand from global traders eager to gain exposure to high-growth startups before public listings. How Injective’s Futures Let Traders Bet on OpenAI and SpaceX Unlike traditional derivatives, perpetual futures do not expire. Traders can hold positions indefinitely. The first contracts highlight access to OpenAI, SpaceX, Anthropic, and Perplexity, four of the most closely watched private companies in tech. Injective said the contracts reflect estimated valuations of private firms, giving exposure without actual share ownership. Sponsored Sponsored “We are starting with access to pre-IPO OpenAI shares through apps such as Helix Markets. Additional companies will be added throughout October,” the company said on X. Other names slated for inclusion include xAI, Revolut, Monzo, Airtable, and Notion. These startups are valued in the tens of billions. According to Injective, data and AI startups alone raised more than $100 billion in 2024. Injective is revolutionizing finance once again. Introducing, onchain Pre-IPO markets.

The project builds on Injective’s August partnership with Republic, a New York-based investment platform. Republic has explored tokenized instruments called “Mirror Tokens.” The alliance aims to bridge retail capital and private equity flows. $2.3B Weekly Trading Shows Private Market Demand Injective reported $1 billion worth of real-world asset futures traded on its chain in the past 30 days. According to DeFiLlama, Injective’s perpetual futures processed $2.30 billion in trading over the last 7 days. Daily activity exceeded $803 million, showing strong demand for real-world asset exposure. Industry observers note that if adoption continues, the model could spread to other sectors such as fintech and biotech. Still, risks remain. Valuations of private firms are opaque. This raises concerns over fair pricing and volatility. Market participants warn that without transparent benchmarks, contracts could swing wildly. The U.S. SEC has also pointed to the challenges of valuing pre-IPO equity, underscoring regulatory sensitivities. Even so, Injective’s expansion signals the next phase of tokenized assets. It makes private equity investable for anyone with a crypto wallet. Analysts say the next few months, as firms such as xAI and Revolut are added, will show if the experiment gains lasting traction or remains a niche play. Injective performance over the past year.

Solana, XRP, and Market Near $4T

Solana, XRP, and Market Near $4T

The post Solana, XRP, and Market Near $4T appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News Crypto market cap clears $3.95T. Solana and XRP outpace BTC, while analysts say a new crypto is the best altcoin to buy now. The global crypto market cap has surged past $3.95 trillion, setting the stage for a new wave of growth across altcoins. With XRP, Solana, and MAGACOIN FINANCE leading analyst picks, many traders are seeking the best altcoin to buy as fresh liquidity flows into the market. ETF Flows Put Solana and XRP Ahead of Bitcoin Last week, Bitcoin ETF products saw heavy outflows of more than $700 million, dragging the overall market lower. Ethereum also faced over $400 million leaving funds, showing a pullback across large-cap assets. But the story shifted when Solana and XRP recorded inflows instead. Solana alone gained $291 million for the week, taking its year-to-date inflows to $1.86 billion. XRP followed with $93.1 million in inflows, totaling $1.6 billion for the year.  Together, they brought in $384 million at a time when Bitcoin and Ethereum products were under pressure. These numbers matter for traders looking at the best altcoin to buy right now. They show where capital is flowing. With U.S. ETF approvals expected soon for both assets, more institutional entry could follow. For now, Solana and XRP are proving that money is finding its way into alternatives even when the two biggest coins slow down. Why XRP Is Being Watched Closely XRP has been trading under $3 for weeks, building pressure without a breakout. Analysts like Altcoin Gordon believe the move that follows will be fast. He noted that XRP has been coiling since it touched $3.60 in July, and the next expansion could catch traders off guard. CoinCodex predicts XRP could hit $4 in the next six months. Sistine Research added that XRP is in its “tightest compression” in…

NASA won’t let a government shutdown slow its moon missions with Musk and Bezos

NASA won’t let a government shutdown slow its moon missions with Musk and Bezos

The post NASA won’t let a government shutdown slow its moon missions with Musk and Bezos appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. NASA is making thousands of employees work without pay during the government shutdown to keep its Artemis moon missions on track with private contractors SpaceX and Blue Origin. Workers assigned to Artemis projects will continue their duties unpaid but must log their hours, according to an email sent Wednesday by Kelly Elliott, NASA’s Chief Human Capital Officer. The space agency expects to compensate employees once the government reopens. Steve Shinn, NASA’s acting finance chief, outlined which missions would stay operational in a Monday memo. The agency plans to furlough approximately 15,000 workers while requiring roughly 3,000 staff members to remain on duty either part-time or full-time throughout the shutdown. The government shutdown started early Wednesday morning, forcing hundreds of thousands of federal workers into unpaid leave and closing numerous programs and services nationwide. Only workers deemed essential, such as TSA officers and air traffic controllers, must stay on the job. As reported by Cryptopolitan, the shutdown may continue till mid-October. NASA will maintain “planned operations” for the International Space Station and any satellite missions currently operational, Shinn stated. He emphasized that “Artemis operations during any funding lapse” would continue, covering both agency employees and contractors working on those projects. Latest NASA memos leave contractor roles unclear The Artemis program aims to send astronauts back to the moon for scientific research and economic purposes while laying the groundwork for the first human trips to Mars, according to NASA’s website. This week’s memos did not specify which contractors are involved in different Artemis missions. SpaceX, led by Elon Musk, secured major Artemis contracts with its Starship rocket, the tallest and most powerful rocket ever launched. The company has conducted 10 test flights of the complete Starship system since April 2023, with another planned for October 13. Previous test flights produced five failures,…
