Proof of Usefulness Score
Gaining Momentum

Verified Global appears to be a legitimate entity operating a network of sports content pages, potentially with significant aggregated social reach (claimed 2M followers). However, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing generic answers ('Internet', 'everyone') and demonstrably false traction claims ('most people have used my product'). The stated revenue/marketcap ($50k) is incoherent with the claimed team size (125), suggesting data errors or significant exaggeration. While the market sector (sports betting) is high-growth, the lack of verifiable technical innovation and the suspicious nature of the metrics significantly impair the score.
