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 clear factual defects were found: sections[1] misattributes a '90 blockchain networks' figure to Blockaid research when Blockaid's own text says 70+ (creating an internal inconsistency with the summary and sections[2], which correctly use 70+), and sections[5]/the Angel Drainer shutdown date is wrong (stated as March 2024; independent reporting places it in mid-July 2024). A timeline entry also narrows Intel 471's $3,000/month combined-package price to 'the infostealer component' specifically, which the source does not say. Several claims sourced only to carding-forum advertisements (crdweb.cc, crdworld.biz) could not be independently verified because those sites returned bot-verification pages to automated fetch; these are marked unverifiable rather than disputed. The page appropriately hedges on operator attribution and enforcement status, both of which I could not find any contradicting evidence for.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
