You could tie the currency to energy, then individual people synthesizing it would be a good thing.

  would it? Say you invented infinite, free, clean energy. You would wind up heating the earth as all the energy would have to dissipate somewhere. What does everyone really want? Happiness - if you generate happiness then your Wuffie account should be credited.
