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.

The five partially-supported findings are minor in scope: four involve off-by-one-day date discrepancies (claim_findings[15], claim_findings[26]) or a small numerical understatement in peak LUNA supply (claim_findings[11]), with the most material error being the Interpol Red Notice date listed as September 1 rather than September 25-26, 2022 (claim_findings[16]). The 79% year-over-year token decline figure (claim_findings[8]) was not independently verified at that exact magnitude but is directionally accurate. A small score penalty of -5 is applied to reflect the partially-supported findings. Three high-priority coverage gaps are noted — particularly that all eight page sections carry empty content and heading fields — but per policy these indicate needed expansion rather than grounds for denial.","score_delta":-5,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
