Gaining Momentum

MovX is a verified German engineering company (founded 2018) developing specialized wearable motion-analysis sensors (movRECON, movACTIVE). While the underlying technology and engineering pedigree (originating from IVS Engineering) are credible and evidenced by patents, the project submission itself contains significant red flags. The claim that 'most people have used my product' is demonstrably false for a niche B2B/specialized hardware product. The 'marketcap' figure appears to be a self-valuation or cumulative metric rather than a verified financial standard. The project has potential in the health/sports niche but is severely penalized for exaggerated traction claims and lack of specific, verifiable user metrics.
