How Trive is Using Blockchain to Combat Fake News

Browser plug-in "Trive" is using the power of blockchain to combat fake news. The company's founder and CEO David Mondrus explains how he is leveraging this technology, and his outlook on the cryptocurrency market. "We have fact-checkers on the net," says Mondrus. Trive crowdsources the verification of news through blockchain technology. One analyst argues if Bitcoin does rebound above $12,500 soon the bubble will burst. "Prices are psychological," says Mondrus. "But the real answer to why Bitcoin fell 30 percent in the last several days is simple. It's the Chinese New Year." Mondrus argues he's seen this pattern repeat in past years.
