Evan Hansen believes that despite the increasing availability of fact-checking tools, public confidence in media continues to decline, especially nearing contentious elections.
He sees blockchain technology as a potential solution to restoring trust in media, offering a decentralized method for verifying information on social platforms.

Hansen notes that the key challenge in fact-checking arises from skepticism about the sources, particularly when concentrated within small editorial groups.
