WeatherXM is a legitimate DePIN project with verified traction (~$12.7M funding, ~5,000+ deployed stations, ~$650k annual revenue), contrasting sharply with the low-quality submission which contained false claims ('everyone', 'most people') and missing data. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and technical innovation through its crypto-incentivized weather network, the score is heavily penalized by the lack of evidence provided in the submission and the falsity of the reach claims.
