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.

However, the page contains several specific, checkable errors that appear to trace back to a single lower-credibility source (ScamWatchHQ): a materially wrong FBI IC3 cryptocurrency-fraud loss figure ($6.57B vs. the report's actual $7.2-8.65B depending on category) that contradicts another source cited in the same paragraph, and a UN revenue estimate that misattributes a single-country UNODC figure to 'Myanmar and Cambodia' combined. The Scam Center Strike Force's member-agency list (IRS-CI, USPIS, DEA) is not supported by either of the two DOJ-affiliated sources the page itself cites, and the Strike Force's stored launch date (Nov 25) is off by 13 days from its own cited source (Nov 12). Several granular figures from the Shunda Park seizure (23 countries, 1,307 evacuees, 604 devices) could not be verified in the cited sources, which were either inaccessible (403) or did not contain those numbers.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":5,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
