Bitget has opened subscriptions for preSPAX, the first token sale on its newly launched IPO Prime platform. The synthetic tracks pre-IPO exposure to SpaceX, priced at 1 preSPAX = $650 against an implied SpaceX valuation of $1.5 trillion. Subscriptions are denominated in USDT or USDGO and run through April 21 at 06:00 UTC.
Why it matters
IPO Prime is Bitget's bid to extend its venue beyond perps and spot into pre-IPO synthetic exposure — a category historically dominated by private secondary desks and a small handful of regulated tokenization platforms. Leading with a SpaceX-linked instrument puts the highest-profile private equity name on the platform from day one, anchoring the launch narrative around a household ticker rather than a thinly traded startup.
Market impact
A $1.5T implied mark on SpaceX positions preSPAX as the most expensive synthetic of its kind on a centralised venue. Whether the implied valuation clears against any cleared secondary print over the subscription window is the real signal: tight subscription with full allocation signals latent demand for private-equity exposure in tokenized form, while a soft fill would suggest retail appetite for SpaceX paper is narrower than the headline number implies.
