BlockBeats News, January 3rd, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stated on the Desci Podcast that cryptocurrency is an efficient fundraising tool. Not only can it provide DeSci with a more diverse source of funding, but it also significantly enhances the convenience of funding.
He has a strong interest in longevity research and medical research and has supported related projects through cryptocurrency, such as donating cryptocurrency to support India's pandemic response and launching the Balvi epidemic prevention project.
Vitalik looks forward to seeing more innovation in the DeSci field, such as:
1. Research contribution distribution mechanism to fairly recognize the value of research work;
2. Interdisciplinary public education fund;
3. Prediction markets to enhance decision-making efficiency in research directions.
