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, three dated timeline entries (the two RSK launch dates and the reimbursement-commitment date) use likely first-of-month placeholder dates that don't match the actual reported dates, and a fourth (the funding-round date) is confirmed by most aggregators but conflicts with one Messari data point. More importantly, all six sections are structurally present with sources and severity ratings but contain zero narrative content, one section's sole source (ZachXBT/Wikipedia) has no discoverable connection to Tropykus, one cited bug-bounty source (HackenProof) now appears to be link rot / a mismatched citation given reporting points to an Immunefi bounty instead, and the page nowhere mentions that Tropykus announced a full protocol wind-down in 2026, which is now the most materially relevant fact about the entity's current status.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
