Ethical side to teleportation

A lot of people get startled when they hear that Nikolay Denisov teaches teleporting coins. "Isn't it stealing?" -- ask they.

Denisov has an answer to such questions. He says to this person to "get the coin that lays on the sidewalk somewhere". He does so in this video:



As to the big picture, I believe that revolutionary research like this will bring revolutionary results to our society. Capitalism, as we know it, will be gone. On its place will come a new kind of society. We can still have the money -- in electronic form. But it will not be possible to accumulate too many phisical items.

I don't see this society yet, but I'm sure humanity will come up with good way of organizing itself.

But what I'm sure about is: it's not ethical to stop practical teleportation research in sake of preserving phisical money system.
