Trader consensus heavily favors SpaceX going public first at 87.5% implied odds, driven primarily by Elon Musk's recent statements teasing a Starlink IPO as early as 2025 once the satellite network achieves stable revenue growth, contrasting sharply with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman's explicit dismissal of near-term IPO plans amid a fresh $6.6 billion funding round valuing the firm at $157 billion. SpaceX's maturing business—bolstered by frequent Starship test successes, record launch cadences, and Starlink's 4 million subscribers—positions it for liquidity events like tender offers already underway, while OpenAI grapples with profitability challenges, AI safety regulations, and internal governance issues post its 2023 board upheaval, delaying any public debut. Key catalysts include Musk's next Starship update and potential FCC approvals for Starlink expansion.
