Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

Scorum is a legacy blockchain sports media project from the 2018 era that appears effectively dormant ('zombie status'). The submission contains demonstrably false claims regarding traction ('most people have used my product'), and the native token (SCR) has lost >99% of its value with negligible trading volume. While the underlying concept of a decentralized sports betting exchange has theoretical merit, the platform lacks the necessary liquidity and active user base to function. Recent search results appearing to show activity in 2026 bear strong hallmarks of AI-generated SEO spam/press release farms rather than genuine organic growth.
