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.

One material factual error was identified at claim_findings[26]: the page states Keleionalani Taylor received 185.55 BTC, while the SEC complaint and press release (Tier 1) consistently state she received approximately 735.54 BTC worth $2.6 million — a nearly fourfold discrepancy that must be corrected. Two high-priority coverage gaps also require attention: the criminal trial was scheduled for April 28, 2025 and as of the review date (May 31, 2026) no outcome has been publicly indexed, and no final civil judgments for Paradise and Taylor are documented following the August 2024 defaults. The page is substantively accurate and the overall fraud characterization is well-calibrated, but the Taylor BTC figure error and the now-stale proceedings section warrant revision before the page is considered current.","score_delta":-8,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
