RE: FACT CHECK THIS: The COVID19 Pandemic Created The Fastest & Largest Wealth Transfer in Human History

I do not see any original information here that requires a $90 vote. I will disagree with the rewards.

I don't see any value in this comment, I'm disagreeing with the rewards.

Feel free to do that :)

Crowd Facts is a new project that aims to generate high levels of engagement over time and to generate threads which are highly shareable on Web 2.0 networks. The upvotes reflect community support for the project and that people want others to know about it.

Incorrect. Half these votes are bots

Also I do not see any engagement.

Also the same 'community' can and WILL disagree with the rewards

As far as we are aware, these accounts are manually curating. In what way are they bots?

Define “we”. You must do your own investigation

Traf is a bot. Everyone in hive is well aware of that.

Also it is irrelevant whether the vote is manual or bot.

My point is these posts doesn’t have any value. It is just farming the reward pool.

This post has value and engagement.

The design of this project is intended to result in the community creating their own posts which will then be curated, creating opportunities for the community to add valuable information to a group task and to earn rewards for doing so. The content will have good SEO value and will be highly shareable on Web 2.0 platforms (once the project matures) - offering an excellent way for Hive to be promoted organically on Web 2.0 platforms. We are using proof of brain to 'mine the truth' using the wisdom of the crowd - it is an idea that is very well suited to Hive.

Since this is a new project, we are creating the first posts in order to demonstrate how the project works and so our own posts have been upvoted. This is in no way an attempt to 'farm' the reward pool, it is simply a new project that is gaining promotion and visibility through upvotes (which is how DPOS and POB were designed to operate since the beginning).

By 'We', we mean the Crowd Facts team.

Please list the members of the “team”

Crowd Facts has been created with support from @resonator, which is an account supported by JamesC, one of original developers of the Steem blockchain that Hive is dependent on. Resonator promotes Hive, supports decentralization and incubates projects on Hive that stand a chance of adding value to Hive. Resonator's aim is to improve Hive's utility and to increase the value of the Hive token.

Crowd Facts is a decentralized project that aims to motivate and empower the Hive community to work together to achieve a common goal. The individuals who run the Crowd Facts account are intended to have minimal involvement with the project once it is established.

The project aims to uncover the truth of important subjects by applying the 'wisdom of the crowd' to the idea of 'fact checking' in use by Reuters and other similar platforms. The Crowd Facts team aims to be neutral and will generally only act to help to grow the project.

Since Crowd Facts is primarily a curation project and not an authorship project, plus also to protect those involved from malicious attacks (should uncomfortable truths emerge as facts are checked), it has been decided that the Crowd Facts team will remain anonymous.

The only other account I see that is always hidden like yours is someone who is an open spam bot. I guess your case is just being rude, which makes sense since your profile seems to brag about it! :) That, and you seem to have plenty of content that is not mainstream. I watched one of the videos you posted and honestly was unable to finish it even on high speed playback, and I couldn't see anything verifiable in the interview with some Russian guy who was very upset and repeating his outrage. Another post you had that showed pictures of shrapnel with Ukrainian markings alleged to be from the train station that was hit - I was considering putting up for a fact check here. I can't easily file through your posts because now every one is requiring me click to show the hidden preview, and again to show the hidden content - they were all videos. Maybe you could find some stories that have claims with evidence that we can evaluate here.

Sorry, I don't recall completely. This was a few months ago when someone who was Russian was being interviewed by someone in Australia. It was all a reaction of the Russian saying how horrible it was that the Ukrainians were doing horrible stuff. There was nothing I could evaluate for truthfulness. Not to discount someone's pain, but my rational mind won't do without evidence before taking a side on issues. If you could illuminate the claims in any of your content - in videos you could point to a timestamp in the video - then people would have a fair chance of coming closer to the truth.
