SpaceX, the largest IPO in history, just made its first print at $150, an 11% premium on the IPO price, briefly pushing the company's valuation to roughly $1.96 trillion
We pulled live order books across the majority of venues offering Pre-IPO $SPCX exposure:
- onchain perps
- CEXs
- locked pre-IPO notes
What you'll see across each image:
- open interest and 24h volume
- book depth within 1% of mid
- spread & the real cost of executing $100k
- PLUS how each product actually settles once the stock is live
A few things stand out:
-
@tradexyz holds the largest SPCX position book anywhere ($315M OI, ahead of Binance's $300M)
- Binance still tops the volume at $1.65B traded in 24h.
- execution quality is diverging, with small players unable to offer great execution quality on a size of $100k
On price:
- the IPO was set at $135 last night
- Nasdaq's initial indication was $175
- the index price pre-first print across 14 perp venues was at roughly $157, a full 10% below the indication
- the perp venues called the lower price, with the first print coming in at $150 and quickly rising to $165
Settlement is where the products differ most, which is why the locked notes traded at a discount to the perps
