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.

However, the disputes include one substantive factual error: claim_findings[23] states the zkLend attacker returned approximately $3.2 million, which is contradicted by multiple sources showing the attacker lost most funds to a Tornado Cash phishing scam and zkLend wound down with only $200K for user recovery. This error appears in a high-severity section and is directly misleading to readers assessing ecosystem risk. Additionally, claim_findings[6] incorrectly states the alpha mainnet launched November 16, 2021 in the section text (the correct date is October 4, 2021), and claim_findings[14] cites the original unlock quantum as 13.1% when Tier 1 sources report 13.4%. Two high-priority coverage gaps further support revision: the zkLend recovery correction and the stale 'late 2025 leading ZK-rollup by TVL' claim, which 2026 data shows was overtaken by ZKsync Era. The score delta is set at the upper end of the minor-issues band given the zkLend error's misleading nature in a high-severity section.","score_delta":-15,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
