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 main defects found are structural rather than factual: two dead citation URLs (blog.peckshield.com, which has no archive fallback, and originprotocol.com/team, which does have one and should simply be swapped to its existing Wayback snapshot), one dead low-tier source (canvasbusinessmodel.com), one timeline date (Super OETH's 'July 2024' launch) that is not supported by any source and conflicts with Origin's own August/September 2024 updates, and current OGN price/market-cap figures that are directionally correct (~98% off all-time high) but not pinned down precisely given wide disagreement across live price trackers. The most substantive gap is the August 2025 'Origin Vault x Levva' claim, which appears in both the timeline and a section but has no citation anywhere on the page and could not be corroborated by any independent source — this warrants sourcing or removal rather than a simple factual correction.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
