I believe Starlink will become the world’s largest recurring subscription business one day. Today, Starlink has 12M+ subscribers across 160+ countries… yet still 2.2 BILLION people (~26% of Earth’s 8.3B) still have no internet access. The potential for Starlink is massive.

I believe Starlink will become the largest subscription business in the world and it’s only a matter of time. This is where the top players stand right now: • Starlink: ~11.8M subscribers • Netflix: 325M subscribers • Spotify: 293M subscribers • Amazon Prime: 200M subscribers • Disney+: 132M subscribers Right now Starlink is still the smallest… but the opportunity is MASSIVE. There are still over 2.2 billion people on Earth without internet access, roughly 26% of the global population. That’s more than the entire population of the Americas combined. Traditional infrastructure can’t reach the remote, rural, and underserved regions where these people live. But Starlink’s satellite constellation is built exactly for it with global, high-speed internet anywhere on the planet beamed down from space. As terminal prices continue to drop, coverage expands, and demand for reliable connectivity explodes in emerging markets, the growth potential is enormous. I’m talking hundreds of millions of future subscribers… When I say things like this, many people laugh, but I’ve always been laughed at till it becomes true. Starlink is the future of global connectivity.

Starlink is revolutionizing connectivity, w/ nearly 5M customers, coverage in 100 countries, and a constellation of over 7,000 satellites. There are still 2.6B people on Earth without internet. The opportunity is massive. I tell people this is a $1T company in the making. Many still don’t believe me.

I put everything I made at Apple into Tesla and Starlink when most people doubted Elon. I believed in where these companies and products were headed long before it was obvious. That conviction eventually turned into $ millions. Today, I have the same, yet stronger, conviction. I believe Tesla and Starlink will become two of the largest companies in the world. And if that happens, I believe it’ll be the journey that takes me from millionaire to billionaire.

STARLINK ISN'T A REPLACEMENT. IT'S A LIFELINE Sometimes people think Is Starlink just going to destroy all the terrestrial internet? It definitely will not But what it will do is Starlink will give access to the internet to people that either don't have access, or where their access is extremely expensive or very bad. So, this is a massive enabler for improving and enabling people in remote locations to learn anything - Elon Musk

I think Starlink is wildly undervalued. It’s a $1+ trillion company in the making on its own. A lot of people still think Starlink is just “internet from space,” but in reality, it’s one of the most important communications networks ever built. In 2025 alone, Starlink generated $11.4 billion in revenue, accounting for roughly 61% of SpaceX’s total revenue. It served more than 10 million customers globally and generated $4.4 billion in operating profit w/ EBITDA margins of 63%. Starlink is a cash machine. Fyi, independent analysts forecast Starlink will generate approximately $20 billion in revenue, $14 billion in EBITDA, and over $8 billion in free cash flow in 2026… plus consumer broadband will continue to expand rapidly, while aviation, maritime, Starshield, and direct-to-cell services will open entirely new markets. The real advantage is that Starlink owns the entire stack. SpaceX builds the satellites, they launch the satellites, they operate the network, and they manufacture the user terminals. No competitor comes close to that level of vertical integration…. On top of this, starship will make the story even more crazier with next-generation satellites, 100+ satellites per launch, dramatically lowering launch costs, and thousands of new satellites being deployed each year, the cost of serving additional customers continuing to fall, while the network & tech keep getting stronger. If you really want to understand why SpaceX is at a $2T valuation… start with Starlink. Starlink already generates the majority of SpaceX’s revenue, profit, and free cash flow. It helps fund Starship development, supports expansion across the company, and provides the financial engine behind SpaceX’s long-term ambitions. The bull case is based on real revenue, real profits, real customers, and a moat that gets wider every year… NOT hype. The way I see it, Starlink will become the most valuable communication company in human history and a $1 trillion valuation doesn’t sound crazy to me for this business/technology alone.

MrBeast just gave one of the strongest endorsements possible for Starlink: “I will only book flights exclusively on planes with Starlink. I don’t care if it means an extra layover - I’ll sit in the back of the plane if it gives me Starlink.” He says Starlink has become the backbone of his global productions and travels because it works in places where traditional internet simply doesn’t exist: • Filming in Antarctica - one of the only reliable ways to stay connected • Building wells deep in rural Africa with full internet access hours away from cities • Driving through remote villages and open fields with a Starlink dish mounted on the vehicle while maintaining signal the entire time He described it as: “Starlink is literally magic. It makes no sense.” Now people are actively choosing flights based on whether the plane has Starlink onboard

This is becoming my new hotel routine. I park my Cybertruck close to my room, plug in Starlink, let the truck power it through the night, and I have reliable internet straight from space. Meanwhile, my computer is connected to the hotel Wi-Fi, and the difference is honestly ridiculous. You can see the speed test for yourself. It’s 2026. There is no reason hotel Wi-Fi should still be this bad. After traveling around the U.S., I’ve realized just how many hotels still have slow, unreliable internet. At this point, hotels should seriously start looking at Starlink. Solid, reliable internet is so important to customers now… a lot of people work, stream, take video calls, upload files, and run entire businesses while traveling. For me, I guess though, it doesn’t really matter right now bc my Cybertruck is sitting outside my room powering Starlink all night, and I have fast, reliable internet wherever I am in the hotel. There’s something pretty wild about being at a hotel with horrible Wi-Fi… while my truck outside is pulling the world’s best internet down from space, just from pointing the Starlink Mini at the sky. Starlink is an absolute game changer, and businesses that don’t adapt are going to lose customers to the ones that do.

Starlink has become one of those things I never leave home without. Whether I’m driving across the country or standing in the middle of Yellowstone at Gibbon Falls, I know I can get online, work, or reach someone if I ever needed help in case of an emergency. Literally everyone around me here has no internet… Meanwhile, I’m here getting high-speed internet beamed down from a constellation of 10,000+ Starlink satellites in space right from a product that fits in my backpack. This peace of mind is honestly hard to put a price on for me… This technology allows me to have the freedom to work from nature, upload videos and my real-time thoughts from places most people lose service, navigate to other remote places when plans change, and stay connected no matter how remote my adventure gets. People often think of Starlink as something you mount on your house. But the Mini has completely changed that. It turns anywhere you want into your office, your communication hub, or your connection to the world. The fact that I can be surrounded by some of the most beautiful scenery on Earth and still have reliable internet makes me feel like I’m living in the future. Make my words. Starlink will prove to be one of the most consequential technologies for humanity.

I genuinely believe Starlink is going to double its subscriber base in 2026, going from 9M to ~18M+. When you lay out the growth, it’s hard not to see where this is heading. This is THE technology that is funding the mission to Mars. Starlink Subscriber Growth • Feb 4, 2021: 10K • Nov 11, 2021: 140K • Dec 19, 2022: 1M (~404 days to 1M) • Sep 23, 2023: 2M (~278 days to 1M) • May 21, 2024: 3M (~241 days to 1M) • Sep 26, 2024: 4M (~128 days to 1M) • Feb 28, 2025: 5M (~155 days to 1M) • June 9, 2025: 6M (~101 days to 1M) • Aug 28, 2025: 7M (~80 days to 1M) • Nov 6, 2025: 8M (~70 days to 1M) • Dec 23, 2025: 9M (~47 days to 1M) This is what you call exponential growth! At the beginning, this technology felt expensive or hard to justify to people who already had great internet, but today it’s much more affordable and for millions of people, Starlink is priceless. All you need to do is point it to the sky and it • Connects families in rural areas for the first time • Lets kids learn about anything from anywhere where there was no internet before (just imagine a curious kid getting access to Grok!) • Enables small businesses, farms, ships, disaster zones, and remote hospitals to get internet • Gives people access to opportunity that geography used to block Once you experience Starlink, people begin to tell everyone. That’s how life changing technology spreads. It’s slow at first then all of sudden everyone gets it. FYI, today ~26% of the world’s population lacks access to the internet, which is about ~2.2 billion people. I believe the growth is just getting started… and the opportunity is massive.

Elon explained on Tesla’s latest Q2 earnings call why Starlink integration in Teslas is so important. “Starlink will be integrated into all our car vehicles, at least for markets that Starlink is active.” It will start with the Cybercab and is expected to expand across the Tesla fleet. It’s important for Robotaxis to have reliable coverage everywhere, they shouldn’t ever enter cellular dead zones, especially in places like Silicon Valley for example. Meanwhile, I’m driving to Yosemite in my Cybertruck right now while FSD handles the entire drive and Starlink beams internet to me directly from space. • 123 Mbps down • 25 Mbps up • 42 ms latency 1/ Tesla builds the vehicle. 2/ FSD drives it. 3/ Starlink keeps it connected. A global autonomous fleet needs a reliable, always-connected backbone… and Starlink is the answer.

Towns like Asheville are currently considered “blackout zones” for accessing the internet, texting and making calls. Starlink is one of the only ways to get internet access after fiber optic lines buried along roads were damaged and cell towers were knocked offline. “I just spoke to Elon. We want to get Starlink hooked up because they have no communication whatsoever.” “Elon will always come through. We know that.”

In order to address this, what we worked with the Ukrainian government to create a whitelist of approved Starlink terminals.

The Ukrainian governor's publicly thanked Starlink many times for being instrumental in defending Ukraine."
