TRX Post questions how SpaceX would fund a ~$500B compute buildout by 2027
A Reddit r/stocks post asks how SpaceX would fund the roughly $500B buildout implied by reaching about 13 GW of compute by end-2027, applying Jensen Huang's ~$50B per 1 GW cost estimate. The post cites SpaceX's ~$90B in cash and marketable securities at end-September, reported talks on a further $40B debt package for Nvidia chips, and Q4 capex guidance of $35–40B versus $19.6B in Q3. It notes the implied ~$125B per quarter is about three times that guidance and that the CFO says new compute deployments pay back in under a year at current pricing.
