Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

The submission demonstrates a plausible foundation in algorithmic trading and machine learning for financial markets, securing points for technical innovation and market relevance. However, it severely underperforms in audience reach and traction due to hyperbolic and highly contradictory claims, stating 'everyone' uses it and 'most people have used my product' while simultaneously reporting a micro-cap of $2,500,000. These unsupported assertions trigger significant quality penalties.
