Every state-changing event for Concentric: moderation decisions on community submissions, plus corrections and updates from the news pipeline. URL-based decisions carry three independent witnesses — the original source, an Internet Archive snapshot taken at submission time, and a Solana memo signed by our publicly-disclosed publisher key.

On January 22, 2024, the protocol suffered a critical security breach when a team member's deployer wallet was compromised through a targeted social engineering attack, resulting in approximately $1.85 million in losses and a 57% crash in the CONE token price. The protocol was subsequently halted entirely, and blockchain forensics firm CertiK linked the exploiter's wallets to prior incidents targeting OKX, UnoRe, and LunaFi, suggesting a sophisticated and recurring threat actor.","timeline":[{"date":"2023-12-13","event":"OKX DEX exploit occurs, resulting in approximately $2.7 million in losses.

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>.
