SpaceX Buys Cursor for $60,000M: The Future of Coding Has Changed

SpaceX acquired Cursor, the most popular AI-powered code editor among programmers, for $60 billion — the largest acquisition of an AI startup in history. Just four days after the world’s largest IPO ($75B on Nasdaq), Elon Musk closed the deal that Microsoft and OpenAI tried to make and couldn’t. Here’s what you need to know.

Cursor went from being valued at $400 million to $60 billion in less than two years, with more than 1 million daily active users and contracts with more than 120 Fortune 500 companies. Now that SpaceX also owns xAI, developers are asking: will Cursor remain compatible with Claude, GPT, and Gemini, or will it be pushed toward Grok? GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, and Claude Code are already taking advantage of the uncertainty.

In this episode, we analyze every angle: the record-breaking numbers, the rejected buyers, the future of model neutrality, and what this move reveals about Musk’s strategy to dominate enterprise software.
