> During SpaceX's funding round last month, they raised $500M [1], $250M more than they were seeking (raise when you can!). This was addressed in the article. While they initially claimed they wanted only $250M, they actually approved and tried to raise $500M. I don't know where you got the idea that they actually raised that much, they failed to hit their goal and were only able to raise $221M.
