Humans want to be active, however you define that, in a certain way, but the idea they want to work is not something I agree with.

By the term "work", I really meant that people want to do something. Precisely because they cannot do nothing. They want to see meaning in what they are working on. If I said that people want to have "jobs", I agree with you. I am making a distinction here.

As I said before, I also do not see the scenario of a world without money. However, if work done primarily by humans is done by machines in the future, and yet nations will not forgo taxes and social security payments to distribute them, where will these revenues come from? From what forms of activity will people pay such levies, if not through a central national currency? In this context, what is better about cryptocurrency if it were also used for the same purpose? After all, you can't expect road construction, energy supply, supermarkets to be paid for in different crypto tokens whose stability changes in a short time, making planning difficult if not impossible?

If Berlin accepted the X token but not the Y token, Berlin would not be able to do business with Hamburg unless they accepted the same currency. The machines that run a power plant in Munich cost money and the operators want to see this money when they make financial investments to supply the region with energy, for example.

Even if cryptocurrency replaced fiat, don't you think it would also be centralised? If oil is extracted from the ground to run petrol stations or electricity is generated for electric vehicles, in what way does who compensate for the costs incurred?

It seems to me that cryptocurrency trading tends to be limited to less essential services and professions, but where it comes to food and energy, travel and construction, the sovereignty of decision-making lies either with the state or with the big corporations that call the shots.

The difference is a lot of this will not be structured as a corporation but with DAO.

I have no idea what DAO is and what you mean by that. Please, explain.
