+325
Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Automata Network is a verifiable, established blockchain infrastructure project (Binance-listed, ~$17M Market Cap) specializing in TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) middleware and privacy solutions. The project is actively pivoting to 'Verifiable AI,' aligning with current market trends. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product'), vague data, and placeholders. The final score reflects the project's proven external traction and technical legitimacy, heavily penalized by the lack of direct evidence and professionalism in the submission.
