+552
Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

MicroVentures is a well-established, FINRA-registered equity crowdfunding platform (founded 2009) with over $700M in verified transaction volume and a user base exceeding 200,000 investors. While the underlying business is highly useful and operates at a significant scale, the submission itself was of extremely poor quality, featuring vague descriptions, lazy data entry, and hyperbolic claims ('most people have used my product'). The final score reflects the high verifiable value of the platform, adjusted downward for the lack of evidence provided in the text.
