Proof of Usefulness Score
Unicorn Utility

The project represents American Tower (NYSE: AMT), a Tier-1 global infrastructure provider with a ~$90B market cap. The real-world utility and traction are indisputable, serving as the backbone for global wireless communication. However, the submission itself is of low quality, claiming 'blockchain' and 'decentralization' as primary technologies, which misaligns with the company's core REIT business model. The score reflects the massive verifiable scale of the entity, penalized significantly by the Quality Factor and Response Quality due to the low-effort and potentially inaccurate technical description provided in the submission.
