Mass produce? Cheaper than other manufacturing methods like extrusion? I don't think so. You're switching a simple process into a more complex process.



To be fair I'm probably not explaining myself that well.

I think we'll be very close to nanobots by then. And bitcoins and 3D printing will have little use.

Most large companies that manufactur or design have 3d printers today. Seeing them in action and seeing other manufacturing methods, I don't see how it becomes a viable mass producer of goods.

Nanobots are tiny theoritical robots that can change the atomic structure of atoms. So creating diamonds from wood and back again. 20 years is probably too soon but I'm thinking it's here in my lifetime. I'm in my early 30s fwiw.
