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.

Verdict: over-penalized. Page content is treated as accurate; the trust_score band is miscalibrated. Sui is a legitimate Layer 1 blockchain developed by Mysten Labs (founded by former Meta/Diem engineers, backed by a16z, Coinbase Ventures, and Binance Labs) that launched mainnet in May 2023. The two loss events cited — the $223M Cetus exploit and the $29M individual theft — were suffered by third parties operating on or holding Sui, not perpetrated by Sui/Mysten Labs. In both cases Sui validators took active remedial steps (emergency freeze, governance vote, $30M Foundation recovery loan). The page itself acknowledges the February 2026 spot ETF listing on Nasdaq and SEC engagement, which contradict the WARNING band framing. Unresolved material caveats — low validator count (122 vs Ethereum's 900K+), ongoing token unlock pressure through 2030, unresolved insider-selling allegation (denied but unaudited), weak on-chain analytics infrastructure, and the ZachXBT withdrawal — justify placing Sui in CAUTIONARY (50-69) rather than VERIFIED, but the absence of any fraud, scam, or Ponzi mechanics means WARNING (20-49) over-penalizes a legitimate, institutionally-backed protocol. A score of 57 reflects legitimate operation with material governance/security caveats that a skeptical investor should weigh.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":4,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
