He will own around 80% of the shares, so he’ll have plenty to sell off to enrich himself or use to borrow against down to 50.01% and he maintains control. So he gets a huge influx of cash from the ipo to use and he gains a wider calculation of wealth headed towards being the first trillionaire. This will absolutely put him over the edge into that status.
He’s not been spending his money, he’s been spending vc and govt contract money. And the VC money is drying up, that’s why he’s opened it up to IPO.
How will that enable his stay in power? I have no clue how stuff like this works.
