Perpetual motion machine. Make a ring of monopoles all facing one direction along the circumference of the ring. Put a 2nd ring of opposing monopoles inside facing the opposite direction along the ring.

If that would work with magnets it'd work with electric charges.

Stupid question. If you develop a quasi-particle monopole, which I guess is something that is not a monopole but behaves like one, can you use it in such a configuration and get the behaviour you are describing?
