Vitalik Buterin ——The dark horse of the 2024 Nobel Prize in Economics

Author: Tristan Greene, CoinTelegraph; Compilation: White Water, Bitchain Vision

The Marginal Revolution founder and economists Taylor Coven and Alex Tabarock recently selected who could win the upcoming 2024 Nobel Prize in Economics.

The discussion took place on the Oct. 8 on the pair’s Marginal Revolution podcast.

Kovin said it was an “unusual choice” and if there was a chance, he would choose Ethereum co-founder and computer scientist Vitalik Butling.

When he and co-host Tabaroque discussed their views on the merits of theoretical economics, the two agreed that Butling should receive the award because “he did contribute to monetary economics.”

Science and Culture:

Vitalik builds a platform to create a currency, It can be said that in this process, Mises’ regression theorem was refuted, obviously following Satoshi Nakamoto’s footsteps, but my goodness, what should a person do to win the Nobel Prize?”

Tabarrok agreed, adding: “More than that,Vitalik also continues to contribute to Ethereum’s mechanism design by adopting a proof of stake mechanism.

He compared Ethereum’s proof of work to a proof of stake mechanism to “videos of those guys in Saudi Arabia changing tires while their cars are driving.”

“That’s what Ethereum does,” Tabarrok added.

The two also discussed Buterin’s seemingly easy-going personality, calling him a representative of the cryptocurrency world and being seen as a smart and lovely person.

However, Tabaroque did point out thatButerin’s contribution to cryptocurrency is second only to Bitcoin’s anonymous creator.“Yes, I agree. Sure, Satoshi Nakamoto deserves it, too, but I’m sure he’s dead,” he said, prompting Cowen to retort, “I’m not sure if he’s dead.”

An HBO documentary allegedly revealed on October 8 that the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, is computer scientist Peter Todd.

Overall, however, the cryptocurrency community does not seem to believe it, and Todd himself denies the authenticity of the filmmaker’s claims.

The Nobel Prize winner in Economics will be announced on October 14.
