Chainstack is a well-established, Series A blockchain infrastructure provider with estimated annual revenue of ~$11M and a team of 51-200, placing it significantly above the calibration baseline (HackerNoon). However, the specific submission provided ('CrimsonStone') is of extremely low quality, containing unsubstantiated claims ('most people have used my product') and vague descriptions. The score reflects a balance between the project's high verifiable real-world value/traction and the severe penalties for the poor quality of the input data.
