The submission contains major red flags, including highly exaggerated and unverifiable claims such as 'most people have used my product' and confusing monthly revenue with an 'all time marketcap: 2500000'. Responses to audience reach and technical specifics are vague or absent. Due to the lack of verifiable traction and suspicious answers, the project receives a negative score.
