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.

The two partially-supported findings (claim_findings[4] on chatbot self-identification phrasing, claim_findings[14] on FBI loss statistic framing) are minor characterization nuances where both readings are materially consistent with cited Tier 1 sources. The one unverifiable finding (claim_findings[20], TechRepublic attribution blocked by 403) is low-materiality and does not affect the page's core factual integrity. The primary Malwarebytes source is confirmed live and supports all operational specifics. Reviewer confidence was 0.88. Two high-priority coverage gaps (on-chain wallet analysis, scam domain identity) are noted for future expansion but do not undermine current accuracy.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
