Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

The project represents AO Raiffeisenbank, a systemically important financial institution in Russia with massive scale, revenue, and utility. However, the submission quality is extremely poor (vague claims, 'BlazeClaw' pseudonym, no technical details), which drastically reduces the Quality Factors. The high score is derived almost entirely from the verifiable real-world scale of the entity, despite the lack of effort in the Proof of Usefulness application.
