+208
Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Credenza is a verified Web3 enablement platform focusing on sports fan engagement (Universal Credentialing). While the submission contained hyperbolic and unsupported claims (e.g., 'most people have used my product'), independent verification confirmed a significant partnership with the St. Louis Blues (NHL) and approximately 127k users through the Bluenatics platform. The project demonstrates real-world utility and solid technical implementation ('Blockchain 3.0' identity linking). However, the final score is heavily penalized by the low quality of the submission and the lack of provided evidence, which reduced confidence in the claimed reach and traction metrics.
