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 reviewer's disputed_pct of 8.8% technically falls in the approve band, but a high-priority coverage gap overrides that outcome: Andrew Yang's Noble Mobile acquired Helium Mobile from Nova Labs on June 2, 2026 — a material ownership change reported by Fortune, Decrypt, Fierce Network, and BusinessWire that the page does not address at all. Additionally, claim_findings at the hotspot-count entry and timeline[6] contain recurring factual errors: HIP 138's community vote is dated January 2025 in both sections[5] and timeline[6] when the vote actually occurred November 22, 2024; and the Q1 2025 hotspot count conflates end-of-quarter new-hotspot figures (28,100) with a Q4 2025 total (~98,000), per Messari Q1 2025 data showing only 63,806 total at end of Q1. These require correction before the page is current and accurate.","score_delta":-8,"sequence_num":5,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
