1. Individual and group decision-making is irrational and biased
2. Rational analysis paralysis due to huge and ever growing data
3. Lack of effective tools for critical analysis and performance evaluation
4. Critical thinking is the key skill in modern and future economy to be successful (data by WEF)

WHY?
One of the main reasons and the cause of this project is that we all know and hear today everybody gossiping about which jobs, occupations, disciplines and even skills AI and robots will take away from people of various social classes, educational and professional backgrounds in the nearest future and throughout the Fourth Industrial Revolution era in general. Actually, "This future is already here — it's just not very evenly distributed yet." - William Gibson. But there's a common understanding and agreement that neither AI itself nor AI driven machines (aka robots) or devices will be able to take away from us, people, some exceptionally human skills:
- critical thinking
- creativity
- emotional intelligence
- judgement and decision-making

1. Meaningful Stories with valuable content require thorough analysis and preparation (depending on author's competency and experience)
• Authors would need to synthesize and process big amounts of data in order to present conclusions as clear and short bullet points
• time to invest into content creation could require additional motivation = rewarding system needed - old school subscription rewarding system hides multiple disadvantages for Authors in modern environment and is simply outdated

2. Centralized content and users moderation is outdated either
• decentralized and self-regulating community of like-minded thinkers and motivated enthusiasts is the future of social networks

3. Blockchain based crypto rewarding system creation requires top level developers with corresponding expertise
• high competition on the market for blockchain specialists (high and growing demand vs. yet still lower availability)
