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.

Core claims about the March 2022 exploit mechanism, financial figures, and the 2025 restructuring are all corroborated by independent sources including SlowMist, multiple news outlets, and the project's own governance forum. The principal weaknesses are: (1) consistent omission of a confirmed third co-founder named Gaarp; (2) an inaccurate date for the $3M seed round (December 2021, not 2022); (3) one unverifiable direct quote due to a 403-blocked source; and (4) the specific NFT return count (100 of 153) lacks direct source confirmation and is weakly contradicted by CoinDesk's characterization of 'almost all' being returned. No claims were found to be flatly disputed by credible counter-evidence.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
