Verify a decision
Every moderation decision on AVOID.NET is anchored to the Solana blockchain. You don't have to trust us — you can verify cryptographically that we committed to a verdict at a specific moment and have not rewritten it.
How verification works
- We commit. When a moderator accepts/rejects a submission, we serialize the decision into deterministic UTF-8 bytes (
payload_canonical_string), hash it with SHA-256, encode the digest as base58, and write it to Solana inside an SPL Memo v2 transaction. - We store the bytes. The exact bytes we hashed are stored alongside the decision in our database. Anyone can read them and recompute the hash in any language.
- You compare three values. Database hash, your independently-recomputed hash, and the hash inside the on-chain memo. If all three match, the decision is authentic and timestamped.
The on-chain memo format is
AVOID.NET|v1|h:<b58-sha256>|d:<id>|t:<iso>Find a signature on any investigation page's decision log, or run python -m src.verify_decision --signature <sig> for a CLI check.

Per the scoring rubric's own instruction, incidents attributed 'b' cap severity at CAUTIONARY (50-69), so the current 42/WARNING score treats a suffered hack as if it carried fraud-attributable weight, which the evidence (three independent tier-2 security firms corroborating mechanism and root cause, no insider-involvement signal) does not support. Mitigating the upside: the team patched within 24 hours and engaged credible incident response (SEAL 911's own public activity log independently confirms involvement — claim_findings[5]), and 107 ETH recovery to a multisig is independently corroborated. Capping the upside: the team's '100% recovery' claim is contradicted by the two independent researchers who actually investigated (they describe partial/unspecified recovery — claim_findings[2]), and the page's own cited TVL source (DefiLlama) shows near-zero TVL with a deadUrl flag, not the $1.28M stated on the page (claim_findings[3]), leaving the protocol's current operating status genuinely uncertain. Net effect: the current score under-credits that this was a suffered hack with a competent, verifiable response, while the recommended 55 appropriately reflects the unresolved recovery-percentage and operational-status gaps rather than pushing to the top of CAUTIONARY or into VERIFIED.","score_delta":13,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
