Exa Protocol is a legitimate, venture-backed startup developing a mobile-first decentralized storage network (similar to Filecoin but for mobile). While the project has verifiable backing from investors like Tribe Capital and a clear technical roadmap (Darwin L1, ExaDrive), the submission itself is of extremely poor quality. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false and severely damages credibility. The project is in the early stages (Testnet/Early Access) with a small team (~7), making it a promising but unproven venture. The score reflects the potential of the technology weighed against the lack of current adoption and the low-effort, hyperbolic submission.
