@teslayoda Wait,Tesla shareholders might have something to say about that. 😂 What if they think Tesla should be the one acquiring SpaceX at a premium?

@niccruzpatane @Tesla @robotaxi Waymo’s biggest competitor may not be Cybercab fleets, but tens of thousands of Tesla owners looking to make a little extra money.

@cb_doge Musk’s real trick may be treating waiting itself as an engineering problem. No grid? Build power. No new building? Retrofit one. Suppliers too slow? Make it yourself. That’s how years turn into months.

@tslaming The more certain FSD becomes, the less interesting it is as a bull-market story. Its real value may show up in the next bear market — as part of Tesla’s valuation floor

@niccruzpatane It splashed into the ocean. It would never fly again. But bringing it back was still incredibly valuable. Every burn mark, broken tile and damaged part could teach SpaceX something for the next Starship.

@wholemars The Robotaxi quietly told him with its actions: Don’t bother. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. I’m the only one driving here.

@cb_doge 52 meters long. 24 days at sea. Now a ~20,000 km ride home. SpaceX takes fishing very seriously. 🎣

@GrindeOptions 720 Megapacks. ~2.8 GWh. At one AI data center site. AI doesn’t just need chips — it needs an astonishing amount of power.

@herbertong @JOBhakdi People say deeper Tesla–SpaceX cooperation will eventually require a merger. I looked for a single thing they need to do together that can’t be done without one. There isn’t one.

@herbertong @JOBhakdi Everyone is asking whether Tesla and SpaceX will merge. I think that’s the easy question. The hard one is: who buys whom — and at what price?

@skorusARK 20x the Starlink capacity per launch — and potentially pushing launch costs from $18,500/kg historically to below $185/kg, with ~$10/kg as the long-term ambition. The scale is almost hard to comprehend.

@Teslaconomics Massive payload capacity, radically lower launch costs, rapid reuse — Starship makes SpaceX’s valuation potential almost unimaginable.

@SawyerMerritt Not a stunt flight campaign — they’re crashing through the failure modes now so Starship can fly again and again later.

The 55% matters far beyond the subscription revenue itself. If FSD can sustain high adoption across Tesla’s growing fleet, it adds recurring revenue, high-margin software economics, and more predictable cash flow. That gives Tesla something automakers rarely have: the ability to increasingly show the economics of a software platform. And that’s where the real upside for the stock becomes interesting.

The 2,500-vehicle cap is the near-term problem. The older one is that Tesla certified a car with no brake pedal while the rule still asks for a foot.

66% is a bet on an announcement. It is not a case for a merger. Terafab can sit in a JV. The missing step is what extra value appears only when the two firms become one.

Close collaboration answers why they work together. It does not answer why they have to become one company. The missing step is the increment only a merger captures.

Synergy proves the value of working together. It does not prove the need to become one company. Good fences can still do the work. The missing step is what only a merger can capture. x.com/i/article/2100…

The live fight is FMVSS 135: the car can stop, the rule still wants a foot. That line is older than Cybercab. Google hit it in 2016. NHTSA let the virtual driver through. Not the virtual foot. Writing up that history now.

In our last post, we explained why Tesla is deploying the Cybercab without a special government exemption, relying instead on self-certifying that the vehicle meets all applicable federal safety rules. That strategy immediately triggers the billion-dollar question: WHAT HAPPENS
