This paper compares the concept of utopia and the concept of extropy – an important category associated with the transhumanist thought. Extropy is understood by transhumanists as a continuous progress, constantly retreating development. Such a definition of extropy, formulated by Max More, stands in opposition to the traditional understanding of utopia, but with closer inspection of transhumanizm, it turns out that we are probably dealing with a technological utopia. Therefore, first we must redefine the concept of utopia, and then confront it with the transhumanist concept of posthuman. I try to show that even though extropy stands in opposition to the traditional definition of utopia, we could see some common elements in both of them.
