Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

Blocknative is a well-established Web3 infrastructure provider with high verifiable utility and traction, evidenced by its integration with major protocols like Curve and Compound. However, the submission itself was low-effort (claiming 'most people' have used it and 'everyone' is the audience), which negatively impacted the Response Quality and Audience Reach scores. Despite the poor submission quality, the underlying project value and verifiable market presence justify a strong score comparable to other established tech brands.
