Industry Mainstay

ReAct (The Anti-Counterfeiting Network) is a legitimate, high-utility NGO established in 1991 with over 350 corporate members, distinct from the React JavaScript library. While the organization demonstrates exceptional real-world utility and traction in the fight against global counterfeit trade, the submission itself was of very low quality (e.g., claiming 'most people have used my product' and listing an 'all time marketcap'). The score reflects the strong underlying value of the entity, heavily penalized by the lack of direct evidence in the submission and the low technical innovation relative to software projects.
