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.

The two partially-supported findings (claim_findings[2] regarding the @NellioETH account type, and claim_findings[6] regarding the absence of confirmed victim loss figures) reflect minor precision gaps rather than factual errors — secondary sources document at least one on-chain victim loss of approximately 93.24 ETH, making the page's 'no amounts confirmed' framing an overstatement. The page's core characterization of Nelly as a victim rather than perpetrator is robustly supported by multiple Tier 1 and Tier 2 sources. The most significant structural problem noted is a high-priority coverage gap: all five page sections are entirely empty, with substantive content confined to the summary and timeline. Revision is warranted to address the loss-figure framing and populate at least one section with incident detail.","score_delta":-8,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
