Elon Musk vows to give every kid in America one SpaceX share

Tech trillionaire Elon Musk on Monday posted on his social media platform X that he would gift every child in America one share of SpaceX, adding that “this will be the first of many.” That is approximately $10 billion worth of stock and would likely be distributed via the government’s Trump Accounts program, where U.S. children receive investment accounts. This comes just one day after Anthropic, an AI competitor of Musk’s, promised to commit 5% of its shares to a new public benefit fund that would make charitable donations to “specific populations.”
