The real curve ball to everything is going to be the releasing of the naturally trapped green house gases in the arctic. Musk knows it's too late to fix Earth, so he created Tesla to buy him time to perfect space, and tunneling technology form mars. With Starlink he will be perfecting EM thruster technology. Spacex started with the merlin engine that became the falcon engine. Spacex is now doing the thing with the merlin engine with hall thrusters. we going to space frens, use your crypto profits to buy a mars ticket.

Excerpt:
Elkins-Tanton has estimated the value of the asteroid’s (16 Psyche) iron content alone at approximately $10,000 quadrillion. That’s to say nothing of the gold, copper, and platinum to be found.

The value of this asteroid alone could wipe out global debt, $60 trillion, and leave enough left over to give every human on the planet a comfortable lifestyle, or conversely, cause the collapse of the world economy and send us hurdling back to the Dark Ages. Take your pick. Elkins-Tanton suggested dragging back a hunk and doling it out little by little, but also played with the idea of solving mineral scarcity for all-time.

Meanwhile, private companies are already lining up to mine asteroids, and Congress has passed The Asteroid Act to codify the practice. Nearly 10,000 asteroids nearby Earth have startling mineral potential. And as the outspreading of smartphones, computers, and other technologies continues, globally, the demand for such minerals will only become greater and the lure of asteroid mining, much more powerful.

Human technology is still way too primitive for interstellar travel.

Raw materials are only a small fraction of the economy, we don't need that many rocks. You won't give everyone a comfortable lifestyle just by flooding the market and making metals really cheap

idea is to bring the cost of expensive strong alloys so everyone can have a space craft.
