Audit log
Every state-changing event for CoinStats: 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.

However, 5 of 9 reviewed claims were disputed or could not be verified: the Tornado Cash amount is 311 ETH (about $959K) rather than 211 ETH (claim_findings[0], [1]), the $4.4M funding figure conflicts with the page's own $3.2M figure and has no source (claim_findings[5]), and the Blurr.eth MKR loss and the no-compensation statement were not verified (claim_findings[6], [7]). Tornado Cash is also described as currently sanctioned although OFAC delisted it in March 2025 (claim_findings[2]). The errors sit in secondary details rather than the central allegation, and the reviewer's confidence is moderate, so the penalty is set in the lower half of the band.anchoranchored

How verification works. The “Row integrity” check above is computed in your browser — your machine recomputes the SHA-256 of the canonical bytes and compares against the stored hash. No avoid.net server can fake that check. The “full verify” link goes one level deeper: your browser fetches the on-chain transaction from a Solana RPC node and confirms the same hash is in the memo. If you don’t want to trust either avoid.net or the public RPC, run the CLI verifier on your own machine —
python -m src.verify_decision <event_id>.
