  1. The Hypothesis Vision

Section Summary

Through a series of transitions in the way we consume content, and based on a new type of accountability system built off Foresight and Usefulness, Hypothesis will work toward creating the first open and sustainable reputation builder for information consumers and creators. Gamified economic incentives at the core of this platform will ensure that all participants—users, groups, content creators and third party clients—will ultimately benefit from this work.

In building Hypothesis, we will seek to establish a global network of digital partnerships that will drive an exponentially-increasing value of Foresight and Insight, providing diverse, positive experiences for each and every Hypothesis user and deepening the incentive for creators to participate in the system. In all, Hypothesis’ success depends on the success of its users and their dedication to constructive self-enrichment.
