NewsYou is a social media platform dedicated to empowering users to be both consumers and creators of trusted news. Users will submit news stories, videos, and text posts categorized by topic.
A unique voting system allows the community to collaboratively assess the veracity of each post. True stories earn users points redeemable for NY tokens, a platform-specific cryptocurrency used to boost post visibility.
This incentivizes the creation and dissemination of accurate news while reducing the spread of misinformation.
