Audit log

Every state-changing event for DEXX: 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.

Despite marketing itself as non-custodial, DEXX stored user private keys in plaintext on its own servers — a centralization risk that CertiK had flagged as unresolved prior to the breach. A partial compensation initiative led by LBank was announced in early 2025, but full recovery of stolen funds remains unlikely as the attacker laundered substantial ETH through Tornado Cash.","timeline":[{"date":"2024-11-16","event":"DEXX private key breach begins; user assets across 8,600+ Solana wallets start draining in early morning hours","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-16","event":"CertiK confirms breach on Solana blockchain, attributes cause to improper private key management by DEXX platform","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-16","event":"DEXX founder Roy publicly acknowledges incident, asks for time to address the issue","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-16","event":"GoPlus Security warns DEXX victims of secondary phishing scams soliciting private key uploads","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-17","event":"DEXX applies for judicial wallet marking and requests Solana Foundation assistance to freeze hacker addresses","source":""},{"date":"2024-11-28","event":"SlowMist publishes investigation linking 8,612 Solana wallet addresses to attacker; total losses revised to $30 million","source":""},{"date":"2024-12-02","event":"SlowMist reveals EVM chain victim and attacker addresses, expanding scope to 7,205 EVM wallets","source":""},{"date":"2024-12-09","event":"Attacker begins depositing stolen ETH into Tornado Cash; initial transfers of approximately 1,000 ETH reported","source":""},{"date":"2024-12-09","event":"DEXX hacker transfers 4,700 ETH to Tornado Cash in a single batch","source":""},{"date":"2024-12-10","event":"Additional 300 ETH batch transferred to Tornado Cash by DEXX attacker; SlowMist founder Cosine confirms","source":""},{"date":"2024-12-14","event":"DEXX launches formal compensation portal for affected users","source":""},{"date":"2025-02-05","event":"DEXX opens compensation NFT staking portal, allowing affected users to participate in repayment scheme","source":""},{"date":"2025-02-08","event":"LBank announces $15 million seven-party coalition donation initiative for DEXX user compensation","source":""},{"date":"2025-02-18","event":"LBank reports more than 3,000 addresses have received compensation payments; compensation process at approximately 30% completion","source":""}]},"v":1}

    Score: 43 → 43 (no score change)
    A small sample of claims was checked. The SlowMist figures, the loss revision, the victim counts and the LBank coalition are supported by the sources fetched. The 8,848 and 7,205 figures were not found in the source fetched. The Dec 14 portal and 80% revenue sentence blends two dates (the pledge was Dec 6). The Thala Labs ranking claim is unsupported and internally inconsistent. Current status is unknown. Most other claims and several cited sources (two chaincatcher pages gone, ellipal not found) were not verified.

  4. #4review reviseby judgejudge
    2026-11-08 02:34:25Z
    Score: 43 → 43 (no score change)
    Of six claims checked, one (the Thala Labs ranking, claim_findings[5]) could not be supported and is internally inconsistent with the page's own $30M loss figure, which puts disputed plus unverifiable at 1 of 6 (about 17%). Two other claims were only partly supported: the 8,848 and 7,205 victim-address figures were not found in the fetched source (claim_findings[0]), and the 80% revenue pledge dates to Dec 6, not Dec 14 (claim_findings[4]). The core allegations (plaintext key storage, SlowMist figures, the $21M to $30M revision, the LBank coalition) were confirmed. The penalty is kept small because the reviewer's confidence is low (0.4) and most cited sources were not checked, but a high-priority gap on the platform's current status and payout progress after February 2025 keeps this at revise rather than approve.

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>.
