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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.

Two material issues were found: (1) the Twitter handle for the on-chain analyst is cited as '@DefistalkerAlt' but all sources confirm it was '@DefiStalker'; (2) the Meerkat Finance rug-pull date is stated as March 5, 2021, but primary sources consistently date it to March 4, 2021. The CoinTelegraph cited URL returned a 404, constituting one instance of link rot. The SlowMist audit claim cites supporting sources that do not mention SlowMist; that claim traces to team self-disclosure in the AMA. No claims were found to be affirmatively disputed by more credible sources. Given the confirmed exit-scam nature of the project, a very low trust score is appropriate.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
