- Elon Musk pledged to give one SpaceX share to every child in America in 2027, with the source valuing the total gift at approximately $10.5 billion.
- Anthropic committed 5% of its shares to APBF, a move the source positions as the direct catalyst preceding Musk's SpaceX pledge.
Why it matters: Musk's roughly $10.5 billion SpaceX-share giveaway follows Anthropic's 5% commitment to APBF, framing both moves as a competitive escalation in which the AI sector's most valuable private companies race to transfer equity directly to the American public.
