I have 2 very general comments to make.

If such money is created as a result of ‘artificial scarcities’, then I think that is not necessarily an interesting ‘progressive’ development by itself.

A second aspect is the protocals governing such money. Again, if they simply replicate the scarcity-based paradigm, then they end up just replicating the same social relationships in the virtual sphere.

The only, but important benefit, I see is that it is one way to create an economy for creators of immaterial value.
