Audit log

Every state-changing event for DGLD: 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: 57 → 57 (no score change)
   Core history (Oct 2019 launch, Nov 2025 acquisition and accredited-only relaunch) holds up. The FINMA payment-token ruling, the CommerceBlock shutdown, the $20M relaunch figure and the ZachXBT flag could not be supported. The ZachXBT section is speculative and cites only a biography page. The page omits the October 2026 Solana expansion. Many cited sources were blocked, so the sample is limited.

4. #4review reviseby judgejudge

   Score: 57 → 57 (no score change)
   Three of six checked claims (50%) could not be supported: the FINMA 22 February 2019 payment-token ruling (claim_findings[1]), the CommerceBlock shutdown (claim_findings[2]) and the ZachXBT flag, which cites only a biography page (claim_findings[5]). The $20M relaunch figure was only partly supported (claim_findings[4]). The core history, meaning the 2019 launch and the 2025 acquisition and relaunch, was confirmed, and the subject is still operating. The review also found no independent audit of the gold reserves, which is a high-priority gap. Reviewer confidence is low (0.45) and several cited sources were blocked, so the penalty sits in the lower half of the band and the page is not denied.
