Proof of Usefulness Score

Industry Mainstay

Everest Ventures Group operates at a substantial scale with a 350-person team and high-profile Web3 portfolio investments (Celestia, Wormhole, etc.). While the project's real-world footprint and descriptions warrant a top-tier calibration, the submission form itself relies on vague hyperbole (claiming 'everyone' as the target audience and 'most people' for traction) rather than concrete data. This heavily penalizes the quality multipliers, preventing what could have been a significantly higher score.
