Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) has seen the value of its holdings in Cursor and OpenRouter surpass $8 billion following recent acquisitions by SpaceX and Stripe. Cursor, which was valued at $400 million during a 2024 funding round, was acquired by SpaceX for $60 billion. These transactions have reportedly enabled a16z's infrastructure fund to return full capital to limited partners.
