Examples: AI upgrades for your personal assistant, buying and selling knowledge for various domains, VR cruft, digital gaming supplies, digital art, etc.

All of those and many more I can't imagine right now will be part of the CC/digital economy. You correct that the rest of the economy can function as it does now with physical and digital fiat. But the purely digitial portion of the economy will inevitably grow and eventually outpace the fiat physical economy. What do you actually need? Food, shelter, etc What else? The rest can be digital. However you are correct your plumber won't accept bitcoin for the foreseeable future and it's not worth losing sleep over it.

But a few decades from now that will be different and incidentally bitcoin will be dead by then because the PKI won't withstand brute forcing. The new CC's that replace it will be much more interesting.
