What is First Context?
First Context is a way to add signal to existing web2 content and bring the conversation onto Hive.
Thoughts on Chain
With one click of a bookmarklet you can import web2 content references to Hive and start a conversation about it. This video shows you a quick tutorial about how it works and how easy it is now to add your thoughts on chain by bringing web2 content data to Hive and make it better, identify if its fake or real and help people more easily digest the content, without actually having to consume it.
Add Signal
You can earn extra credits by adding signal to information on web2 and web3 by adding the following types of information to your content catches:
- Categorise content: is it an origional post? reaction video? a clip?
- Is the content authenitc?
- How important is the content?
- Add time stamps of importance for videos
- Add important quotes from the video or article
- Discuss why the content matters
Signal Inbox
It also collates content from one creator across multiple platforms into one feed, so that you as the content consumer can more easily see what is going on in your feed without needing to go to multiple platforms and spend time going through all of your feeds

Honestly, beta contest is the best way to see different content accross all flatforms. i call it the All in One... bravo to you @starkez for your efforts to make us feel at home oon the hive blockchain.
Thank you very much Agent Cee! its much appreciated!
So basically I don't have to login to any platform just open https://beta.firstcontext.app/ (login via my hive user id) and ta da right ? this is pretty cool stuff.
I Think I am kind of late xd.
Appreciate these comments and feedback! Yes, the cold start problem is legit for sure. I hope we can raise a lot of support from whales in the eco system to vote for Signal Scouts / Signal Miners who are really adding great value signal to the web2 content. It is an opportunity to direct resources to create great content consumers, rather than only focusing on bloggers as we have done traditionally.
The idea here is that the signal inbox is one of the main products. each inbox has a feed of creators that the user follows and we can anonomise it and keep track of how often that inbox feed is visited by the user.
this means we can clearly see demand for creators, and then we can inform the Signal Scouts / Signal Miners that that is where they can go to add signal and thereby optimise their rewards, system credits and reputation. So the system may be able to self bootstrap this way.
But i do agree, at the moment we are starting with youtube, twitter, tick tok and instagram who all have their own nuances for bringing in data. but we ahve done some work to enable import of wiki articles and scientific journals and publications to the eco system. i think this is where a great focus should be. however, im more inclined to let the community direct us primarily based off of signal inbox usage, follows and visits.
FYI, this is one of the account associated with the First Context and Signal Mining projects @bitmoving, so i also echo this sentiment
Personally i think this will be mostly external to Hive. Hive is the main "preservation and rewards model" for this and wil be a great bootsrap, but we are updating to web2 login in phase 2 (post beta) and hope to attract many people with normal web2 logins to participate. we will discreatly show them that hive accounts earn more rep and more rewards, and so hope to convert many that way.
this will allow us to take on marketing angles like "help identify fake content", "be part of identifying real content in the age of internet uncertainty" and "give your take on content" and "build your reputation as a Signal miner" as an approach to normal web2 and other web3 community users. The data ingress system is also a proof of human, as its really really hard for bots to replicate that. so we will be more easily able to identify humans, and their expertise and increase their standings in the trending feeds and more heavily weight their signal, particularly if they are renowned in the field. by attracting and having web2 creators verify their youtube and hive accounts, we can easily ingress people with strong reputations in their relative fields based on their respected web2 histories as well as just using their more recent web3 history.
this then changes the narrative to "use your expertise to mine signal and increase your reputation outside of the web2 platforms"
