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.

However, two of the three YouTube videos presented as primary evidence of coordinated promotion now return 404 with no archived copy, undermining the verifiability of the page's central promotional-activity claim. A third video's title is misquoted (page says '10X', actual title says '100X'). The CoinMarketCap 'preview page' notice is quoted in a way that does not match the actual boilerplate text found on CMC listings. The live price/market-cap/volume/all-time-high figures, while accurate to a snapshot, are now significantly stale — current trackers show the token has fallen far further than the ~93% decline cited, and the timeline's own 'time of investigation' date does not match the archive timestamp of its own cited source by roughly ten weeks. The cited Moralis on-chain source is permanently dead (HTTP 410); a live replacement was identified. No community-submitted evidence was available to cross-check.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
