The three largest US (30% of global GDP)telecom companies with almost 100% market share, AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon, have a combined market-cap of about $600B. They have slightly over 400M subscribers. That’s $1,500 per sub. Now extrapolate Starlink’s subs/market share. https://t.co/xFSnq2diDl (2) At the current 50% growth rate Starlink will have 75M subscribers in 2030, worth about $75B in 2026 dollars(10% discount rate) today. If its growth rate slows, then far less. Now you see why “Data centers in space!” is the new narrative. @SpaceX

Quoted context

These are the quoted author’s words.

The entire global space economy is estimated at ~$600B. At a $2T valuation, SpaceX would be more worth than 3X the entire industry it operates in. https://t.co/g6c4LRXfME
