According to Arkham Intelligence, a space rocket company founded and run by a tech billionaire Elon Musk stores a significant amount of bitcoins.
This week, the aerospace giant successfully carried out the first-ever commercial spacewalk, with American entrepreneur and SpaceX engineer Sarah Gillies stepping into outer space at an altitude of more than 700 kilometers above Earth.
The event was widely celebrated by social media users on Elon Musk's X platform.
The tech mogul also weighed in this week plans to launch spacecraft to the red planet Mars, which has been his goal for expanding human consciousness from Earth for years. Musk tweeted that if all goes well, the first unmanned spacecraft will head to Mars in two years.

During this period, the two planets will be connected by the shortest distance. If the ships manage to land safely on the surface of Mars, then in two more years the first human crews will fly to Mars to found a self-sufficient city on this planet.
However, in his latest tweets, Musk complained that he currently sees a lot of bureaucratic obstacles to further SpaceX test flights.
At the same time, SpaceX holds a small stash of Bitcoin along with Musk’s other company, Tesla. According to Arkham, SpaceX’s BTC holdings are currently valued at $500 million.
