Gaining Momentum

Elusiv is a legitimate privacy protocol on Solana that raised verifiable seed funding ($3.5M), but this specific submission is of exceptionally poor quality. The respondent makes factually impossible claims (audience: 'everyone', traction: 'most people have used my product') and provides no verifiable data. While the underlying technology (Zero-Knowledge proofs) has merit, the project faces severe regulatory headwinds (privacy mixnet crackdown) and the submission fails to demonstrate actual utility or traction.
