๐ง "UTILITY DELTA" โ ELON MUSK'S FRAMEWORK FOR BUILDING USEFUL THINGS ๐
> โWhatever you're trying to create, ask: Whatโs the utility delta compared to the current state of the art, multiplied by how many people it affects?โ
Elon Musk drops this gem to explain how to measure true innovation and impact. Here's the breakdown ๐
๐ Utility Delta = How much better your idea is vs. what already exists
๐ฅ Reach = How many people benefit from that improvement
๐ Multiply them = You get your total societal impact
---
๐ Why it matters to builders and investors:
โ Big gain ร few people = great impact
โ Small gain ร millions = still great impact
โ Big gain ร millions? Now youโre changing the world ๐
Whether you're launching a new blockchain, DeFi protocol, or layer-2 solution โ ask the "utility delta" question before you scale.
๐ก If your project moves the needle and impacts many, youโre building something that truly matters.
