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.

Core factual claims about the June 2 flash crash, ZachXBT's allegations, edgeX's response, and the compensation program are confirmed by multiple independent sources. The primary precision issue is that the page consistently uses a 77% crash figure from $1.26, while Tier 1 sources (CoinTelegraph, The Block) use 70-71% from a lower starting price; the discrepancy reflects different measurement windows. Two The Block URLs returned HTTP 403, limiting full verification of those specific sources. The Amber Group '$3 billion in assets' description conflates valuation with AUM and appears outdated. Coverage gaps include no regulatory analysis, no on-chain forensic links, and no coverage of post-June 4 developments including completed compensation payments.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
