Musk makes another wild claim: The goal is to make SpaceX worth more than the entire earth

IT House reported on July 11 that SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has been relying on describing a sci-fi future to investors for many years to obtain funds for his business plans. Musk even boasted in a tweet on the 10th: "If we achieve our goals, SpaceX will be worth more than everything else on Earth combined." Musk made the above remarks in response to a supporter's doubts about the latest AI computing power agreement between SpaceX and Anthropic. The other party believed that SpaceX gave too much money to a competitor. Musk believes that the key lies in whether humans can completely develop solar energy. As long as humans can utilize the currently untapped solar energy, SpaceX’s value may even exceed the world’s total GDP of approximately US$100 trillion (IT Home Note: The current exchange rate is approximately 678.48 trillion yuan). Musk even stated in January this year: “The value created by the space industry will far exceed all industries on earth, because humans can obtain energy equivalent to 100,000 times the current energy of the earth, while consuming solar energy is still less than one millionth of the total energy of the sun!” Previously, Musk also claimed that autonomous driving technology makes Tesla’s value exceed that of other companies in the entire automobile industry combined. He also believes that the Optimus robot, which has yet to make substantial progress, will "increase the earth's GDP by an order of magnitude." SpaceX's stock price rose sharply after completing its high-profile IPO last month, but has since continued to fall. Market enthusiasm has been limited, reflecting lingering investor doubts about whether a company that lost as much as $5 billion last year (about 33.924 billion yuan at current exchange rates) deserves a multi-trillion dollar valuation.
