Genius Yield is a verifiable DeFi project on the Cardano blockchain featuring an order-book DEX and yield optimizer. While the technology is sophisticated (leveraging Cardano's eUTXO model) and the project has a historical community footprint (~27k Twitter followers, past ISPO), the submission itself contains significant red flags. Claims such as 'audience reach: everyone' and 'most people have used my product' are objectively false and damage the credibility of the application. Furthermore, recent market data indicates negligible trading volume (approx. $7/24h for the token) and low active usage compared to competitors. The score reflects strong technical foundations severely penalized by poor submission quality and a lack of current, verifiable traction.
