You're In Business

The Tonomy Foundation is a verifiable entity (Dutch non-profit) developing Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) solutions on the Antelope/Telos blockchain. While the technical team appears competent and the project is active (running a Telos validator, GitHub activity), the submission is heavily penalized for hyperbolic and demonstrably false claims (stating 'most people have used my product' and conflating token market cap with revenue). The project fits the 'Minimal Traction' profile, with valid technology but negligible mainstream adoption compared to its claims.
