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.

Two factual errors were found and recur in parallel timeline entries: the Binance Monitoring Tag date (page says March 7, 2026; Binance's own announcement and secondary reporting say March 6, 2026) and LRC's all-time-high price (page says $3.83; current CoinGecko, DefiLlama and CoinCheckup all show $3.75-$3.77). One statistic (a 252% volume surge) could not be verified in any of the three sources cited for it. One cited URL (mexc.com/news/703876) appears dead per the page's own archive metadata. The biggest gap is that the page's data appears to predate Loopring's complete DEX/AMM shutdown in June 2026, so its framing of a 'Layer-3 pivot' as the project's current direction is now stale.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
