Charlie Stross@futurebird @leadegroot @jannem @dx Cryptocurrencies rely on artificial scarcity, hence proof-of-work in Bitcoin. You could drive space colonization (eventually) by requiring proof-of-location: you can mine just one coin per square km of surface on your planet. Run out of coins? Go find another planet! (The coin-mining process hashes the GPS location with some impossible-or-hard-to-forge astronometric observation, eg. time-stamped observation of black hole merger detected via a LIGO-like array).
