Musk just announced that he plans to give away one SpaceX share to every child in the US. According to SpaceX's current stock price and US child population estimates, if Musk fulfills his promise to give away one SpaceX share to every minor in the US, the total value of the shares involved could reach 10 billion to 10.7 billion US dollars. Just now, Musk announced that he plans to give away one SpaceX share to every child in the US next year. According to SpaceX's current stock price and US child population estimates, if this promise is fulfilled, the total value of the shares involved could reach about 10.2 billion to 10.7 billion US dollars. Judging from the number of grantees, the US White House announced on October 7 that it has established nearly 70 million “Trump accounts”, of which more than 60 million have been created through automatic registration. The US Treasury previously estimated that the total number of children eligible for Trump's account in 2026 was about 73.37 million. This means that if the stock giveaway program is implemented through Trump's account, the number of existing accounts can be used as a preliminary estimate; if all eligible children are covered, 73.37 million people need to be used as a benchmark. Based on SpaceX's latest closing price of $146.03 on October 16, if one share were given away to 70 million accounts, the total value of the shares involved would be about US$10.222 billion; if it covered all 73.37 million eligible children, the total value would be approximately US$10.714 billion. The above estimates are all based on current stock prices, and the final size of the stock giveaway still depends on the actual number of grantees and the market price at the time of delivery of the shares.
