Trustnodes is a verifiable, long-standing crypto news platform (est. ~2017) with a genuine niche audience. However, the project submission is extremely low-quality, featuring vague claims ('everyone' as audience), nonsense technical details ('Newspapers'), and zero verifiable metrics. While the external reality of the project (asset) places it in the 'Small but promising' category (comparable to a niche blog), the submission failed to provide adequate evidence, resulting in maximum penalties on Quality Factors. The score reflects the existence of the working product balanced against the unprofessional submission and unverified financial claims.
