CRYPTO START-UP TRIVE TO COMBAT FAKE NEWS USING BLOCKCHAIN TECH, CRYPTOCURRENCY

As the battle over fake news rages on and attempts by corporations like Facebook and Google to curb the spread of misinformation fail miserably, one unique start-up claims to have the ultimate solution, and it combines the wisdom of the crowds. It’s called Trive, a combination of the words ‘truth’ and ‘hive,’ and it uses the blockchain to crowdsource news verification.
According to their website:
‘Trive is a social science global consensus engine that researches and clarifies Truth through Human Swarmed crowd wisdom using blockchain based rewards and verification mechanisms. Using crowdsourced research, game theory and cryptocurrencies it will enable citizens all over the world to research, verify and score the truth of almost any piece of knowledge.’
