Fact-check findings
What an automated fact-checker found when it re-read CoinDash against the sources the page cites. Only the most recent review is shown.
These findings are produced by an automated reviewer, and its results vary between runs: the same page, checked three times on the same day, came back with 15%, 20% and 34% of its claims disputed, mostly because each run extracted a different number of claims. Treat what follows as leads, not rulings.
“Disputed” means the reviewer could not reconcile the claim with the evidence it cited. It does not mean the claim is false. “Unverifiable” means no reachable source settled it either way.
Nothing here changes the page on its own. A proposed correction is applied only after a human moderator approves it; until then the page reads as it did when reviewed.
unverifiable
1 claimNo source the reviewer could reach confirms or contradicts the claim.
- #4[unverifiable][awaiting moderator]in the timeline
“CoinDash officially relaunches as Blox, retaining the CDT token ticker.”
reviewerBlox rebrand relaunch on 2018-02-27CoinDesk confirms the platform launch was planned for Feb 27, 2018. One search summary dates the rebrand to March 2018. The cited blog was unreachable, so the date is not confirmed.
partially supported
3 claimsThe cited evidence supports part of the claim but not all of it.
- #1[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in the summary
“The company later rebranded as Blox and has since ceased operations; the CDT token retains minimal trading volume.”
reviewerThe company later ceased operations and CDT retains minimal trading volume; Blox became ssv.network and CDT was redenominated to SSVSearch results indicate Blox pivoted into SSV Network and CDT was redenominated to SSV in 2021, an active project. 'Ceased operations' overstates; only the legacy CoinDash entities and the original product are closed. Not corrected because I did not fetch a primary source for the redenomination. - #2[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in the summary
“Thirteen minutes into its token sale, an attacker compromised the company's website”
reviewerApproximately 43,500 ETH stolen; hack about 13 minutes into the saleCNBC, cited for this, does not state 13 minutes or 43,500 ETH. The 13-minute figure is widely reported elsewhere, but I did not verify it from a fetched source. CoinDesk (fetched) gives 43,500 ETH in summary and 'more than 43,000' in body. - #5[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in section: Rebranding to Blox and Current Status
“The Blox platform later pivoted to Ethereum 2.0 staking tooling before ceasing visible operations.”
reviewerBlox pivoted to Ethereum 2.0 staking tooling in 2021 before ceasing visible operationsThe staking pivot is supported. 'Ceasing visible operations' is misleading because the project continued as SSV Network.
confirmed
1 claimThe cited evidence supports the claim as written.
- #3[confirmed][no action needed]in section: Partial ETH Return by Attacker (2017–2018)
“bringing the total returned to 30,000 ETH — worth approximately $26 million at the February 2018 price. The attacker retained approximately 13,400 ETH, valued at roughly $11.6 million at the time.”
reviewer30,000 ETH returned in total, about $26M, attacker retained about 13,400 ETH worth $11.6MMatches CoinDesk. The article does not give per-transaction amounts (10,000 and 20,000), which the page states; these come from other cited sources I did not check.
