Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Cerebellum Capital claims to be an ML-based hedge fund established in 2008, yet the submission is heavily undermined by grossly exaggerated and unrealistic statements (e.g., claiming 'everyone' is the audience and 'most people have used my product'). A reported 'all time marketcap' of 2.5M for an 18-year-old financial firm with 30 employees strongly indicates stagnation or inaccurate reporting. Consequently, traction, reach, and response metrics receive heavily penalized quality factors (0.5) due to the lack of verifiable and realistic evidence.
