Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

The submission references a legitimate and well-known media brand ('Decrypt'), but the entry itself contains significant red flags indicating it is likely spam or bot-generated. Critical issues include a fake email address, nonsense technology claims ('space-technology'), and unverifiable/exaggerated traction statements ('most people have used my product'). While the underlying subject (Decrypt Media) has real-world utility and reach, the specific submission fails to provide valid proof, warranting a score in the 'Red Flags/Minimal Verification' range.
