SpaceX agrees to buy Cursor for $60B
SpaceX exercises its option and signs an all-stock definitive agreement to acquire Anysphere for $60B, the largest startup acquisition on record.
Cursor becomes a captive tool inside SpaceX's AI stack rather than a model-agnostic editor. Stock exchange ratio set by a 7-day VWAP; $10B termination fee, $4B if antitrust blocks. Cursor cited $2.6B annualized B2B revenue.
