Proof of Usefulness Score

Industry Mainstay

SOOHO.IO is a legitimate, Series A funded ($9M) blockchain security firm protecting over $2B in assets with clients like Samsung and the Bank of Korea. However, the submission quality was extremely poor (claiming 'everyone' as audience and 'most people' for traction), which triggered significant Quality Factor penalties. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and enterprise traction, the PoU score is capped by the lack of verifiable data provided directly in the input.
