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 on-chain hashes, addresses, times and amounts for both March 2025 exploits match independent sources (claim_findings[0], [1], [2]), and the Lazarus attribution is hedged appropriately. The page does have a currency problem. It presents a mid-2025 TVL of about $2.2M as current and describes Zoth as an active issuer (claim_findings[5], [6]). Search results the reviewer could not read directly indicate TVL fell to roughly zero by October 2026 (omission_findings[0]). Because that status change is unconfirmed, the page gets a minor penalty and a request to update its current-status wording, not a harsher rating.","reviewer_def_hash":"bc11388ce4bc4deea1b064fea362663ae06e3f4f687f99604769044d6ffba770","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"severity_override":{"applied":true,"band":"minor","from_band":"approve","reason":"Computed disputed_pct is 0% (0 disputed, 0 unverifiable of 11 claim findings), which would approve.
