You're In Business

The project UTU Technology presents a social platform integrating blockchain and tokenomics with a team of 30. However, the submission is critically undermined by demonstrably false claims regarding audience reach (claiming 'most people have used my product' while addressing a niche market) and a lack of verifiable active user data. While the reported market cap ($2.5M) and team size indicate a legitimate business structure, the poor response quality and exaggerated traction signals result in a score reflecting minimal verifiable utility and high skepticism.
