Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents a historically significant, publicly traded entity (Intrinsyc Technologies, acquired by Lantronix) with verifiable large-scale traction ($75M+ Market Cap, 350+ team). However, the submission itself is low-quality, using an incorrect name ('FrostForge'), hyperbolic audience claims ('everyone'), and outdated status. The high score reflects the objective reality of the company's historical success and utility, heavily discounted by the lack of current market relevance and poor response effort.
