SpaceX is a big space company. The company sells shares to the public on Friday. Many people want SpaceX shares. So, people put their money together in special groups. These groups are SPVs. People use the groups to buy shares.
But there is a big problem. Many groups buy from other groups. Sometimes there are five groups in a line. This is very confusing. Now, many people do not know their share number. Some people have zero shares.
People must wait for their shares. The company has a lock-up rule. This rule stops quick selling. The first group gets shares first. They have thirty days. Then the next group gets shares. They also wait thirty days. The last group waits a long time. They wait eight or nine months. This is a very long time. Justin Ernest is a manager. He talks about this long wait.
Many people worry about bad managers. Some managers take money for fees. The people get fewer shares. Also, some managers do not talk to people. Nick Davidov talks about his friend. His friend is in a group. The group manager is quiet. The manager does not answer emails. The manager is quiet for a year.
Other companies say no to these groups. Anthropic says no. Anduril says no. Giovanni Pennetta is a bad manager. He is in prison for four years. He lies about Anduril shares. Idan Miller is an expert. He expects more bad managers. People find the truth later. They find the truth after the long wait.
Take a position. Out loud, if you can.
