Digital scarcity seems like a fundamental concept also in the digital realm. Consider games: if you only have a certain number of weapons, lives, or limited time, isn't that digital scarcity? If you play capture the flag, the fact that there is only one flag, and only one team can "own" it at any one time, isn't that digital scarcity? Aren't the points you get from sweating arbitrarily "scarce"? Or isn't the first position a ranking "scarce"? It seems to me that scarcity is at the heart of many fundamental social mechanics, be they physical or digital.
