A distributed manufacturing approach to building the vision of simple “dumb” autonomous self-replicating machines using 3D printing and BitCoin will enable us to clean the environment and provide all the energy the world needs many times over.

Although I would terraform the moon first.

I’ve been dreaming about this since 1995
