You think nature enforces property rights?

Ultimately cryptography does, which means math. So "nature" in only a moderately expansive sense.

No, it is the ability of society to enforce laws that gives you property rights. Not cryptography.

Cryptography can restrict the use of information, but not physical goods, for obvious reasons.

Cryptography can restrict the behavior of machines. That certainly extends (increasingly) to the operation and circulation of physical goods

The circulation of physical goods requires energy. Work is force times distance moved. Cryptography doesn't change that.

The monkeys are the masters of energy rather than super-intelligent AI? What's your point?

It's a technology to avoid being hacked (= owned).
