SpaceX shares for U.S. children: what Musk has promised | NewsCubby

Watch video

Elon Musk says he plans to give one of his SpaceX shares to every child in America in 2027. He announced the pledge on Monday, October nineteenth, but has not explained the age cutoff, distribution process or exact delivery date. President Donald Trump suggested the shares could go through Trump Accounts. That does not establish how Musk will carry out the plan. The announcement followed Anthropic’s proposal for a public benefit fund. These are separate promises with different details. For families, the key questions remain eligibility, timing and how the transfer would happen. A pledge is not a completed transfer. NewsCubby will follow the official details as they emerge.
