Hi,
I wanted to run this by you and see what you say.
What if we scrapped money altogether and just gave everybody what they wanted?
I know it sounds ridiculous, and everybody would just go for 100 cars and 100 fancy houses, but if you think about it, if you could get everything you wanted, all those things wouldn't be as valuable anymore, and it would lose it's "richness" appeal and people would be bored by it after a while and just settle with what they actually needed. Don't we have all the technology and resources to make this happen? It could also mean less crimes would happen then too.
Sidenote: I love the idea of bitcoin so I don't really want to ruin bitcoin, but hey, maybe we could go there with bitcoin somehow...

You mean you want to remove all concepts of money? That means you are removing fiat, gold, cryptocurrency and other forms and mediums of value. I don't think it is possible anymore. That would mean we would come back to the old ages were people did barter for everything. It is highly impractical and will not reflect the current times. What if you want to buy a car, but it would cost 10,000 pieces of bread? That would be hard to do.
