I assume you mean atomically precise manufacturing? That has the potential to bring us into an age of radical abundance mainly by substituting the materials used in high technology from rare metallic elements to carbon-based diamond. Where diamond based meta materials are sufficient, we can free up our use of metals. But for those cases where rare crustal elements are still needed, and fir energy generation, access to space will be required in the long run.
But yes I agree, and that’s why my two slow burn start ups have been related to astroid mining and molecular nanotechnology.
