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.

Three material issues require attention: (1) the timeline incorrectly places Abel's guilty plea in January 2021 when it occurred September 3, 2020; (2) the sentencing delays section incorrectly states Weeks' motion to withdraw his guilty plea 'remained pending' when it was denied in October 2025; and (3) the Balaci sentencing date of 'October 7, 2026' appears to conflict with BehindMLM reporting that it was rescheduled to March 19, 2026. Two minor technical characterizations — calling the Balaci filing a 'superseding indictment' rather than 'superseding information,' and the slight ambiguity in Medlin arrest sub-district — are minor errors that do not affect the page's overall accuracy.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
