An important part of what will really make it take of is when we get some bona-fide ecommerce going where people can actually buy/sell goods and services as part of a token economy that does not have to "exit to fiat" in other to transact. Imagine — even — FedEx and the USPS accepting crypto for shipping fees!
Looking at the greater "story arc" here, we may also be poking at the edges of "the future of work." We might reach a point where the issue of people being made redundant by technology segues into a situation where our participation in multiple or even dozens of communities add together to create something that eventually becomes a blend of privately funded "basic income" and a gig economy... you can't make a living by just being in ONE place, but if you add your participation in a dozen different venues together, you end up with a viable income stream.

ECommerce is certainly vital. We need marketplaces constructed so people can buy goods and services they require in their everyday lives.
As for the idea of a basic income, it is spot on. Our activities will generate incomes that are passive, effectively being what you cite. Of course, it requires some resources to start which, if no money, means activity.
But yes being involved in a few different things is vital.
