Not really. Compared to the average blockchain project handshake.org has some thinking behind it and is attempting to solve a real problem (e.g. recent capitalist take over of .org tld)

Thinking about something and attempting to solve a real problem doesn't mean a solution has any inherent merit.

brb thinking about how to solve climate change and attempting to solve a problem by turning off my AC give me millions of dollars thanks.

Check the names on the Handshake Whitepaper. One is the co-inventor of Lightning Network and the other is the lead maintainer of bcoin, one of the few credible Bitcoin implementations. They spent over 2yrs working on Handshake. It’s not a bunch of lightweights or scammers.
