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.

Two problems keep this page from clean approval. First, the title and entity name state 'ROYA Token Pump-and-Dump' as settled fact, while the body text and every cited source treat it strictly as an allegation from a single on-chain investigator with no independent corroboration, regulatory finding, or admission (claim_findings[0]) — a title is what most readers actually see, and hedged body prose several paragraphs down does not fix that. Second, the citation offered as proof that Yahoo Finance covered this story instead links to an unrelated pump-and-dump case involving different people and a different token (claim_findings[7], disputed), and the page's RAVE-token statistics disagree even between its own two cited sources (claim_findings[6]). None of this undermines the well-corroborated core reporting, but the title's unqualified framing of a serious, unproven accusation against a named person, combined with a mismatched citation, requires correction before the page can stand as approved.","score_delta":-14,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
