 Yes! I think it's related to the Economic Complexity perspective, in other words, the idea (or phenomena really) that it is complexity as in different industries, ideas, skills, philosophies working in synergy create a more resilient and better economy. https://oec.world/en/rankings/eci/hs6/hs96?tab=ranking

This is also found in nature as seen for example in the work of Ernst Gotsch Syntropic Agriculture. Basically the more biodiversity and density of plants, trees, etc, the more productive that area is.

It's fascinating. So yes, idea complexity is what perhaps will work. So in other words Bitcoin, Monero, entrepreneurship, AI, Web3, transparency, tokenization, electronics, technology, etc, etc, the people with a more well-rounded approach will probably create more complex/resilient economies.
