    Bitcoin rose 25.1% in August, climbing from $62,794 to $78,545 and recording its third-best August performance.

    Ripple’s $16 Trillion Volume Rivals Visa, Says Brad Garlinghouse

    Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said the company touched $16 trillion in transactions last year, but only about 0.1% of that volume moved on-chain through XRP, stablecoins, or other blockchain settlement. He said each 0.1% represents roughly $160 billion, and Ripple’s goal is to grow that on-chain share as overall volume expands. Garlinghouse said the $16 trillion figure puts Ripple’s transaction scale on par with Visa, and moving more of that volume on-chain would benefit customers through faster settlement, lower cost, and greater certainty. He said both stablecoins and XRP are having record years and expects the $16 trillion total to grow further in 2026.

    SK Hynix Stock Price: Analysts Set $240 Target After S&P Upgrade

    S&P Global Ratings raised SK Hynix’s credit rating from BBB+ to A-, citing strong AI-driven business performance, with a positive outlook for further gains. The upgrade follows the company’s capital return plan, which has already pushed SK Hynix stock up 11.3% over the past three weeks.

    Second-quarter results support the optimism. Revenue hit 79.32 trillion won, up 257% year-over-year, with a 76% operating margin, driven by strong demand for HBM chips and enterprise SSDs.

    Analysts are turning bullish too. Wolfe Research and RBC Capital Markets began coverage Monday with price targets of $200-$240 per ADR, citing HBM4 pricing tailwinds. Stifel started with a Buy rating and $240 target, while William Blair projects free cash flow could more than double by 2028.

    How to Buy SpaceX Shares If You Don’t Get an IPO Allocation

    Yes, you can absolutely still buy SpaceX shares today once they hit the public market. If you missed out on the IPO allocation, your opportunity begins during secondary market trading on the Nasdaq (ticker: SPCX). Anyone with a standard retail brokerage account (like Robinhood, Fidelity, or Charles Schwab) can buy shares. However, be prepared for price differences. While the official IPO price was set at $135, high demand means the stock will likely open much higher when public trading begins. Use a limit order to ensure you don’t accidentally buy at an inflated peak during the opening volatility.

    SpaceX IPO Impact on the U.S Stock Market

    A market commentator warned that the upcoming SpaceX IPO could trigger selling across stocks and cryptocurrencies as investors raise cash to buy shares. The argument centers on the IPO’s reported $1.75–$2 trillion valuation and demand exceeding available shares by more than four times. Supporters of this view say oversubscribed investors may sell existing holdings to gain exposure. However, the claim that June 12 will be the “worst day for markets in history” remains speculative and unproven. Markets will closely watch trading activity after the IPO begins to assess whether it causes a broader liquidity shift.

    When Does SpaceX IPO Go Live

    SpaceX is officially going public tomorrow, Friday, June 12, 2026, listing on the Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX. Final pricing locks in tonight at an expected $135 per share. This historic debut matters because it marks the largest IPO in history, valuing Elon Musk’s aerospace giant at an unprecedented $1.8 trillion. Next, public trading will open tomorrow. However, due to a massive price discovery process, expect the stock to actually begin trading late morning or early afternoon ET rather than at the 9:30 AM opening bell.

    What Time Does SpaceX (SPCX) Start Trading

    While the stock market officially opens at 9:30 AM ET, SPCX will not start trading at that exact time. Due to the $75 billion listing, the Nasdaq must run a massive “price discovery” process. Underwriters (led by Goldman Sachs) will manually match buy and sell orders to find a stable equilibrium before releasing the stock to the public. The first public trades for SPCX will likely start late in the morning or early in the afternoon ET—usually sometime between 11:30 AM and 1:30 PM ET. If you are waiting to buy shares on your favorite trading app, just keep refreshing your screen around midday. It will go live the moment that behind-the-scenes math is settled!
