I really don’t enjoy tokens as a core UX experience. I’d rather they went fully invisible. I once played Clash of Clans for a few months and a) got into a joyless grind mild addiction that I recognized and broke out of b) realized thanks to South Park episode that people with the addiction genes probably can’t break out. The next big technical leap crypto needs is token agents. Delegate them broad permissions once and they deal with entire categories of tokenized transactions on autopilot. I realize the only games I’ve ever enjoyed aren’t scored by points. There may be points and a point leaderboard, but you can ignore and just play. Puzzles are like this. Your payoff is just the solve that unlocks the next puzzle in the sequence. Tetris is like this. Your score is just survival time.

Kinda like how execs manage capital flows? Less literal balances, more downsourcing all decisions below certain thresholds.
