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.

The Terra/LUNA bad debt figure of about $14 million conflicts with a cited source that says $11.2 million (claim_findings[0]). The $14.9 million borrow figure, the $13.5 million recovery with the lightning vote, and the Coincentral archive link could not be confirmed (claim_findings[2], [5], [11]). The core March 2026 figures (84% of supply, 3.81x, 8,048 liquidations, $2.15 million bad debt, $4.7 million attacker loss) and the 2021 $95 million figure are confirmed, and the one omission is minor, so the penalty sits at the low end of the band.
