Interesting timing here.
Just as #SpaceX gears up for the largest IPO in history, Starlink is quietly raising prices across several plans.
Residential and Roam customers are reportedly seeing monthly increases of $5 to $10, while even Standby Mode doubled in price to $10 per month.
The timing here isn’t surprising.
Once a company prepares to go public, Wall Street starts focusing intensely on revenue and earnings.
Starlink is increasingly being positioned as the recurring cash flow engine helping justify SpaceX’s reported $1.75 trillion valuation.
At the same time, competition is coming.
Amazon is rapidly building out Leo, which aims to compete directly with Starlink in satellite internet.
Right now, Starlink clearly has the lead.
But the satellite internet race is just beginning, and pricing power could become much more important once serious competition enters the market.
