Category Standard

Lolli is a highly successful, verified Bitcoin rewards platform that was acquired by Thesis in July 2025. With over $28M in funding, 600,000+ users, and $20M+ in rewards paid out, it demonstrates exceptional traction and utility. However, the submission itself was of very low quality, containing hyperbolic claims ('everyone', 'most people') and missing key financial data. The score reflects the project's proven enterprise value and market position, heavily weighted by external verification despite the poor form entry.
