+862
Proof of Usefulness Score
Unicorn Utility

The project 'Bitstop' is a verified industry leader in the Bitcoin ATM space, having acquired major competitor Genesis Coin to power over 30% of global Bitcoin ATMs (12,000+ machines) with billions in transaction volume. Despite a very low-quality submission (containing copy-paste errors like the name 'DeepRider' and hyperbolic unverified claims), the external reality of the business places it in the highest tier of traction and utility. The score reflects the massive verifiable reach and market dominance, heavily penalizing only the 'Response Quality' metric.
