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.

Key imprecisions include: the founding location described as 'San Francisco' when the legal entity was incorporated in Delaware; the OPNX shutdown statement attributed to Kyle Davies when contemporaneous reporting attributes it to Su Zhu; the VARA individual fines framed as applying only to the 3AC founders when CoinFLEX's founders also received identical fines; and the asset freeze figure stated as 'over $1 billion' when documented sources cite $1.1 billion specifically. No claims were found to be directly disputed by credible current sources, and the MAS regulatory violations section is notably precise and well-supported.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":1,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
