Mesto is a verified digital community for Russian-speaking founders and entrepreneurs (est. 2020) with approximately 25,000 members. However, the submission contains significant red flags: the evidence of traction ('most people have used my product') is demonstrably false and hyperbolic. The audience reach claim ('everyone') is unrealistic for a niche community. The revenue figure ('17000000 marketcap') likely refers to a community token valuation rather than verified business revenue. While the project has real-world utility as a networking hub, the low-quality submission and lack of verifiable growth data significantly penalize the score. The project falls into the 'Small but promising' category but ranks lower due to poor evidence presentation.
