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.

Several errors were found: the page cites the wrong Executive Order (13722 instead of 13810) for Amnokgang's designation; it misattributes a DPRK-hack-proceeds finding to TRM Labs when the source is actually Chainalysis; it states an incorrect 'last recorded update' month for the OpenSanctions record (May instead of July 2026); and it slightly overstates sourcing in two places (Facebook Marketplace vs. plain Facebook; and framing Do Phi Khanh/Hoang Van Nguyen's designations as purely about 'IT worker earnings' when the primary Treasury framing is their support for nuclear-procurement facilitator Kim Se Un). A few date/nationality specifics (Yun's exact June 2023 start month, Hoang Minh Quang's Vietnamese nationality, the exact March 13 license-revocation date) could not be independently confirmed and are marked unverifiable or partially supported rather than confirmed.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
