Audit log

Every state-changing event for AnubisDAO: moderation decisions on community submissions, plus corrections and updates from the news pipeline. URL-based decisions are designed to carry three independent witnesses — the original source, an Internet Archive snapshot, and a Solana memo signed by our publicly-disclosed publisher key. Archive coverage is still being backfilled, so each decision below reports its own snapshot status rather than assuming one exists.

   Score: 2 → 2 (no score change)
   The core narrative (about $60M raised, pool drained about 20 hours in, competing phishing and rogue-developer accounts, ZachXBT's attribution to Beerus and Ersan, no charges) is supported by the sources checked. The main error is a conflation of the June 2022 1,018 ETH laundering with the July 15-16, 2023 100 ETH batches, which creates a false 'reports differ' discrepancy and a misdated timeline entry. The Tornado Cash sanctions framing is stale after the March 2025 delisting. Several claims, including the 9,500 ETH and 'largest depositor' figures and Sisyphus quotes, were not verified against the cited sources.

   Score: 2 → 0 (-15)
   Of 10 claims checked, 3 were disputed and 1 could not be verified, giving a disputed share of 40%, which falls in the significant-issues band. The three disputed findings (claim_findings[0], [1], [2]) are one error: the page merges the June 2022 laundering of 1,018 ETH with the separate July 15-16, 2023 batches of 100 ETH, creating a false 'reports differ' discrepancy and a misdated timeline entry. The Tornado Cash sanctions framing is out of date because Treasury lifted them in March 2025 (claim_findings[3]), though the review rates that omission as minor. The core account (about $60M raised, pool drained, competing narratives, ZachXBT's attribution, no charges) was supported, so the penalty sits at the low end of the band.
