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, claim_findings[4] establishes a clear factual error — the page states Dr. Chengdiao Fan holds a PhD in Computer Science, while her own official biography and multiple corroborating sources confirm her PhD is in Anthropological Sciences. Separately, claim_findings[30] overstates the causal link between the Bybit CEO controversy and the 60% price drop, misrepresenting the timeline (the ATH of $2.98-$2.99 was reached approximately February 26-27, after Zhou's February 20 statement, not before). A high-priority coverage gap also exists: the page omits that a prior co-founder, Vincent McPhillip, filed a lawsuit against Kokkalis, Fan, and SocialChain in 2020 alleging ownership dilution — materially relevant background given the active 2025 Moen litigation. These issues together warrant revision before the page is considered final.","score_delta":-8,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
