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 most significant problem found is a stale all-time-low figure ($0.71 on 2025-12-30) in both the Token Performance section and the timeline: the page's own cited source, CoinMarketCap, now shows the token fell further to $0.2399 on 2026-05-29, after the page's current date. Two biographical claims (Leo Cheng's detailed work history; Jeffrey Huang's 'Machi X' NFT marketplace) could not be independently corroborated and should be treated with caution. No accepted community submissions existed to review. Coverage gaps include missing timeline-level source attribution and no discussion of CREAM's/Huang's current operational or regulatory status.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":5,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
