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
- 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. - 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.
- 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.

Two of ten claims could not be verified, giving a 20% unverified rate and no disputed claims. These are the 2024 timeline entry about recovered hack BTC transfers, which the cited source does not support (claim_findings[7]), and the list of governments that seized Crypto Capital funds (claim_findings[9]). The price and market-cap figures are undated in the summary and conflict with later tracker data, and the Cointelligence allegation is presented without noting it is an unproven 2019 claim (claim_findings[2], [3], [4]). The reviewer also flagged missing on-chain verification of burn totals and the unresolved BTC recovery status as high-priority gaps. The omission about iFinex controlling supply and burns is minor, and the token is still operating.","reviewer_def_hash":"bc11388ce4bc4deea1b064fea362663ae06e3f4f687f99604769044d6ffba770","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
