FAQ — The SpaceX IPO Screensaver
Did SpaceX really IPO?
Yes. SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 per share on June 11, 2026 and began trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker SPCX on June 12, 2026, opening around $150. Raising roughly $75 billion at about a $1.77 trillion valuation, it's the largest IPO in history. This screensaver celebrates that moment.
What is the SpaceX IPO Screensaver?
It's a retro-CRT joke screensaver marking the historic SpaceX IPO — the second $SPCX went live on the Nasdaq. It imagines what the markets and the internet look like the moment the long-awaited IPO finally happens, running four looping CRT-style visual modes entirely in your browser.
What are the four modes?
Mars Static is red-and-black CRT noise where the grain is made of tiny green up-arrows and red down-arrows. No Funding Secured is a blue "no signal" screen with a bouncing box that launches a Falcon 9 on a corner hit. Candlestick Starfield flies you through a warp field of green and red candles with a giant Elon or Dogecoin drifting past. Launch Control is a glitching SMPTE test pattern reading NASDAQ:SPCX — LIVE.
Are there hidden easter eggs?
Yes. Type 4, 2, 0 to flash a "420% Day Gain". Press M to drop a runaway fake stock ticker spinning past a million dollars. Press Escape and, as well as leaving fullscreen, a fake Windows 98 error pops up saying your portfolio has performed an illegal operation and will be liquidated.
What do the sliders do?
The Tweet Frequency slider controls flicker intensity — at maximum the screen shakes like the market reacting to a real-time tweet. The Leverage Multiplier slider controls grain and speed, so at 100x leverage the static and candles move at blinding speed. Toggles add scanlines, zero-gravity floating text and Mars atmospheric interference.
Does it use real market data?
The IPO it celebrates is real — $SPCX listed on the Nasdaq on June 12, 2026 — but the screensaver itself shows no live prices. Every number and arrow on screen is generated locally for fun, and nothing here is financial advice. It is a single web page built with HTML5 canvas and JavaScript, with nothing to download or install.
Is it free?
Yes, completely free. No account, no ads, no watermark. It is one of 145 free browser-based tools at jasperbernaers.com.
