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.

The sole disputed finding (claim_findings[28]) is a timeline date error: the page records Breakpoint 2025 as September 2025, but a Tier 1 Solana Foundation source confirms the event was held December 11-13, 2025 in Abu Dhabi — a three-month discrepancy. Additionally, claim_findings[5] is partially_supported because the page attributes the Breakpoint 2023 presentation to Anas Khader when Zoheb Shahzan was the actual presenter that year. No core allegations — financial figures, security posture, regulatory standing, or exploit history — are disputed; most financial metrics are confirmed by Tier 1 sources (CoinGecko, DeFiLlama). A priority-high coverage gap on FAF token liquidity concentration (~$6,500 USD in 24h volume against a $3.7M market cap) was noted and should be addressed in the next revision. One cited URL (FLP token doc) is a 404, though its underlying claim is corroborated by independent sources.","score_delta":-10,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
