Proof of Usefulness Score
Certified Problem Solver

The project refers to 'Plus Minus Power', a legitimate renewable energy company acquired by Pegasus Group Holdings in July 2019 for a significant infrastructure initiative. However, the submission itself is of extremely low quality, containing false traction claims ('most people have used my product'), nonsensical financial data ('marketcap: 50000'), and suspicious contact details. The score acknowledges the verified real-world utility and historical exit (acquisition) of the actual entity, while heavily penalizing the inaccurate and low-effort submission.
