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 review's 13% disputed rate is driven primarily by one confirmed factual error and one unverifiable claim: claim_findings[23] shows the OpenSea NFT trading volume is stated as approximately $7 million on the page, but Tier 1 and Tier 2 sources (Decrypt, Vice, CoinTelegraph) consistently report approximately $4 million — this should be corrected. Additionally, claim_findings[33] on MiCA-driven European delistings in September 2024 lacks any corroborating evidence and may conflate separate regulatory events; this claim should be removed or sourced. Minor issues include a one-word quote transcription discrepancy in claim_findings[21], unverifiable social media aliases in claim_findings[19], and two performance figures (900% initial gain, 1,900% 2024 rally) that are directionally plausible but lack direct sourcing. Three high-priority coverage gaps — on-chain verification of the promised 10 trillion token burn, chain-of-custody tracing of the stolen tokens, and current SEC enforcement status for the Wallace Wells Notice — are significant and should be addressed in the next revision.","score_delta":-8,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
