VegaShares Announces Launch of the VegaShares SpaceX & Beyond Earth ETF (XSPC)

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--VegaShares (“Vega”), a leading derivatives- and thematic-focused ETF provider, announced the launch of the VegaShares SpaceX & Beyond Earth ETF (Nasdaq: XSPC). The ETF seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in companies commercializing space and the artificial-intelligence infrastructure that increasingly depends on it. Exposure spans the full orbital stack: the launch and exploration providers opening cislunar space, the satellite networks extending connectivity to every point on Earth, and the orbital compute and data systems moving AI capacity off the ground. The fund is anchored by a position in SpaceX (Nasdaq: SPCX), which completed its initial public offering on June 12, 2026, alongside a portfolio of launch, satellite connectivity, orbital infrastructure, geospatial data, optical communications, and edge/defense AI companies.

“SpaceX’s public debut marks the start of a new chapter for investors seeking exposure to the space economy, and XSPC is designed to capture the full breadth of that opportunity in a single ticker,” said Adam Stempel, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Vega. “XSPC is one investment for the three frontiers reshaping orbit — exploration, connectivity, and the intelligence that runs them — weighted toward the build phase of a multi-decade infrastructure cycle.”

Three structural forces underpin the strategy. Reusable launch rockets have cut the cost to reach orbit, opening cislunar transport and in-space infrastructure to private capital. Low-Earth-orbit constellations and direct-to-device spectrum are extending broadband to the estimated 2.2 billion people still offline — and to every connected machine. And edge inference on-orbit, free radiative cooling, and uninterrupted solar power are pulling AI compute off the ground — a new frontier for data-center capacity within a space economy projected to reach $1.8 trillion by 2035 according to the World Economic Forum.

Investing involves risks. Loss of principal is possible. The fund is non-diversified. The principal risks of investing in the VegaShares SpaceX & Beyond Earth ETF include:

• SpaceX Investment Risks — The Fund will invest in the securities of SpaceX. Investments in the securities of SpaceX involve significant risks that may differ from, and potentially exceed, the risks associated with investments in other issuers.

• Technology and Industrials Sector Risks — Rapid product obsolescence, substantial capital requirements, and regulatory change may adversely affect Fund holdings.
• Artificial Intelligence Risk — Issuers engaged in artificial intelligence typically have high research and capital expenditures and, as a result, their profitability can vary widely, if they are profitable at all.

• IPO Risks — The Fund may purchase securities of companies that are offered in an IPO. The risk exists that the market value of IPO shares will fluctuate considerably due to factors such as the absence of a prior public market, unseasoned trading, the small number of shares available for trading and limited information about the issuer.
• SPAC and De-SPAC Risks — The Fund may invest in securities of companies that have recently completed IPOs and may have become publicly traded through transactions involving SPACs or de-SPAC transactions.
• Concentration and Non-Diversification Risks — Focused exposures may produce greater volatility than a more diversified portfolio.
• Communication Sector Risks. The Fund may invest significantly in companies in the communications sector, and therefore the performance of the Fund could be negatively impacted by events affecting this sector.
• New Fund Risk — The Fund has a limited operating history.
• Equity Market Risk — Equity securities may experience sudden, unpredictable drops in value.
