Fact-check findings
What an automated fact-checker found when it re-read GoodDollar against the sources the page cites. Only the most recent review is shown.
Read this first
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
3 claimsNo source the reviewer could reach confirms or contradicts the claim.

“Good Labs Foundation reported the incident to Chainalysis, which according to reporting by CryptoSlate, created an incident report and flagged the wallet addresses involved in the exploit for monitoring.”
reviewerGood Labs Foundation reported the incident to Chainalysis, which created an incident report and flagged wallets.The attribution to CryptoSlate is not borne out by the fetched article. Searches found no other source. The GoodDollar Medium post may be the real source but could not be read. - #7[unverifiable][awaiting moderator]in section: Prior Security Incident: December 2023 Exploit
“resulting in the unauthorized withdrawal of 627,328.47 cDAI and the unapproved minting of approximately 14 billion G$ tokens.”
reviewerDec 17, 2023 reserve exploit with 627,328.47 cDAI withdrawn and ~14 billion G$ minted; 3.6B burned.The December 2023 exploit is real per GoodDAO governance posts. The specific figures, the burn, the 100% fee and the exploiter address could not be checked because the X and Substack sources were not read. - #8[unverifiable][awaiting moderator]in the timeline
“GoodDollar launched publicly, beginning daily G$ UBI distribution to global claimants.”
reviewerYoni Assia launched the project in November 2018 and GoodDollar launched publicly Sept 2020.Forbes and WEF pages were not fetched in this review due to time. Forbes article date of 2020-09-10 is consistent with the claim. Not scored against the page.

- #4[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in the timeline
“GoodDollar publicly announced the incident, disclosing that 86,588 cUSD had been drained from its Celo reserve and $20,857 from its XDC reserve. Reserve operations and bridging paused. Good Labs Foundation reported the incident to Chainalysis.”
reviewerTimeline entry attributes the Chainalysis report to Sept 9 announcement.Amounts and Sept 9 date are supported by CryptoSlate; the Chainalysis sentence is not. Also, the cited Medium title suggests a general community update, not clearly the Sept 2026 announcement. - #5[partially supported][awaiting moderator]in section: Protocol Overview

reviewerCelo holds about 28% of G$ supply.Matches, though it is a share of circulating supply.
How this fits together. The reviewer reads the published page and its cited sources and records one finding per claim. A human moderator decides whether each proposed correction is applied; those decisions, and the score changes they cause, appear in the audit log. Earlier review runs are not shown here; only the latest reflects the page as it stands.
