+605
Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The project represents SIX Group, a massive global financial infrastructure provider (Swiss Stock Exchange, Payment Services). Real-world utility and traction are exceptionally high (billions in revenue, critical market role). However, the submission quality is critically low, with vague claims ('everyone', 'most people') and amateurish data entry. The score reflects the undeniable magnitude of the entity, heavily penalized for the poor quality of evidence provided.
