I've been doing a deep dive on MicroStrategy's Michael Saylor. He often mentions that BTC dematerializes money. He points out that there are many examples in which making something material into an unlimited service is highly beneficial to the creator and the user, such as Google Maps. In the past, you had to buy maps to get around. Now everybody has maps on their phones at no cost, which increases our ability to get around efficiently and makes boatloads of money for map providers.

Other examples are when AI dematerializes somebody's job. Or, how COVID has forced companies to switch to remote working. Suddenly, the corporate campus dematerializes.

He wrote a book, which I haven't read yet, The Mobile Wave: How Mobile Intelligence Will Change Everything. It's on my reading queue.

Saylor certainly has some interesting insights. I watch interviews with him on YouTube. They get repetitive. However, they are different enough that he lets out new insights from time to time that makes it worthwhile to sit through the routine parts of the interviews.

I think your assertion of moving towards an unlimited world is spot on. Other examples are like here on LeoFinance and Hive, people are rewarded for doing what they do for free on other platforms. It's amazing that people can earn money making videos on YouTube, or streaming their games on Twitch. Imagine if journalists let go of working for corporations and instead set up their own internet news stations. People would have a choice on who provides their news and would not be subject to editorial censorship.

There is so much that can be dematerialized and turned into abundance if we change the way we think.
