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.

The page correctly distinguishes this as a key-management/multisig failure rather than a smart contract bug or exchange hack, and accurately presents ZachXBT's initial staged-hack allegation alongside his subsequent retraction. Two recurring errors were found: the page twice misdates the comparator Bybit hack as occurring in 'February 2026' when it occurred in February 2025 per Halborn's own research and other reporting. One claim (no funds moved through centralized exchanges) is stale, as later on-chain tracking showed partial fund movement to KuCoin by June 20-21, 2026. The page also omits Humanity Protocol's subsequently reported strategic pivot away from its identity mission toward enterprise AI, a material development for assessing the entity's current status.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
