Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Morphine.online is a legitimate, verified high-end fashion marketplace specializing in vintage and upcycled 'drops' (circular economy). The project was founded by Creative Director Macs Iotti and is backed by industry heavyweight Marcelo Burlon (New Guards Group), providing significant external validation. However, the submission itself was of very poor quality, containing hyperbolic claims (Reach: 'everyone', Traction: 'most people') and misused terminology ('marketcap' for revenue/valuation). While the business model (sustainable luxury) is timely and the backing is impressive, the project functions as a niche boutique rather than a mass-market platform. The score reflects the strong underlying business reality, severely penalized by the low-quality, exaggerated submission data.
