Proof of Usefulness Score

You're In Business

VeritaTrust addresses a genuine e-commerce problem (fake reviews) using blockchain and AI, but the submission is filled with vague, unsupported, and exaggerated claims. Stating 'most people have used my product' and listing the technology simply as 'Internet' severely damages credibility. With a modest crypto token market cap of $2.5M and a complete lack of verifiable user metrics, the project demonstrates minimal real-world traction, resulting in a very low PoU score.
