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.

That still falls in the minor-issues band, but two corrections are needed before this qualifies as a clean pass. claim_findings[7] flags an incorrect romanization of the Chinese term for the scheme ('sholai zhu pan' instead of 'sha zhu pan') -- a cosmetic error. More substantively, claim_findings[22] shows the page overstates a background statistic, attributing all 3,703 Foreign Ministry-logged overseas job-scam cases to human trafficking when independent reporting indicates only about 40% (roughly 1,480) were classified as trafficking; on a page dealing with trafficking and coercion, a roughly 2.5x overstatement of that figure needs correcting even though it sits in contextual background material, not the core allegations against the named syndicate or suspects. Separately, claim_findings[24] and [31] show the page's US$46.9M USDT freeze is misdated to August 2025 in both a section and the timeline -- that is the disclosure date, not the June 2024 freeze date -- which should be fixed for timeline accuracy. Finally, coverage_gaps[0] is rated high priority: no source addresses whether any of the 39 domestic suspects have raised a coercion or trafficking defense, which the page should address explicitly given it already distinguishes the paid domestic operation from the separately documented trafficked-abroad population. None of this touches the page's core allegations -- arrest count, victim count, dollar losses, named suspect Febiola Elizabeth's alleged role, and the criminal charges -- which the reviewer found solidly corroborated across independent tier-1/2 sources despite some cited URLs being bot-blocked.","score_delta":-10,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
