ChainCatcher news, well-known economists Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok recently proposed in a podcast that Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin should be a strong candidate for the Nobel Prize in Economics.

Cowen praised Vitalik's significant contribution to the field of cryptocurrency monetary economics, and believed that his achievements far exceeded those of other economists. He said: "Vitalik built a platform and created a currency, which can be said to refute Mises' regression theorem. Although he developed on the basis of Satoshi Nakamoto, his achievements are undoubtedly at the Nobel Prize level."
