The African Diaspora of Las Vegas (ADLV) is a verified 501(c)(3) nonprofit established in 2019, generating approximately $143,000 in annual revenue (2024). While the organization provides genuine local utility through cultural events (Africa Day) and community support, the submission contains significant red flags including false traction claims ('most people have used my product'), incorrect terminology ('marketcap'), and negligible technical innovation. The project is a standard nonprofit organization rather than a technology solution.
