Audit log
Every state-changing event for Portal: 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.

The project has been flagged due to concerns including extreme token holder concentration, a low audited code coverage percentage, a pre-seed investor price roughly 30x below the listing price creating immediate sell pressure, active phishing and wallet-drainer campaigns impersonating the project, and a partially anonymous founding team.

The CertiK-based concentration and audit-coverage claims, which carry much of the summary's risk framing, do not match the cited CertiK page as it now stands (45.12% major holding, 20,502 holders, no coverage figure).

However, the CertiK-based holder concentration figures (claim_findings[1], [2]) are only partially supported because the cited CertiK page now shows 20,502 holders and a 45.12% major holding ratio, and the audit coverage figure (claim_findings[3]) could not be found on the cited page, so 1 of 5 checked claims (20%) is unverifiable and two more are only partially supported. These unsupported figures underpin the summary's risk framing, and a high-priority coverage gap on holder distribution remains open. The project appears to still be operating with no omitted shutdown or exploit, and the reviewer's confidence is low, so the penalty is kept modest and the page should be revised rather than denied.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>.
