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.

Verdict: over-penalized. Page content is treated as accurate; the trust_score band is miscalibrated. EigenLayer is a legitimate and operational Ethereum restaking protocol by Eigen Labs that suffered two discrete third-party attacks in October 2024: a social engineering email compromise targeting an investor's token transfer (~$5.7M loss to the investor) and an X account hijacking that led to a phishing victim losing $800K in mETH. The company's own smart contracts, infrastructure, and on-chain systems were not compromised in either incident. Both incidents were resolved: Eigen Labs completed its investigation by October 29, 2024, partial fund freezes were achieved via law enforcement and exchange cooperation, and new security protocols were implemented. As of 2025-2026 EigenLayer (now EigenCloud) holds ~$8.9B TVL, has institutional operators (Google Cloud, Coinbase Cloud), and continues active protocol development. The current score of 32 (WARNING) is inconsistent with the page's own framing of EigenLayer as a legitimate protocol targeted by external actors. Under the post-policy band semantics, WARNING implies elevated fraud or loss risk from the entity; the correct band is CAUTIONARY (50-69), reflecting material caveats including: the process negligence of using unprotected email to coordinate high-value token transfers, the tokenomics controversy (VC-skewed allocation, US/Canada exclusion from airdrop, non-transferable initial tokens), and the unresolved question of exact fund recovery amounts — none of which constitute fraud by Eigen Labs itself. A score of 58 in the CAUTIONARY band is appropriate for an independently-verified, institutionally-backed protocol with resolved external incidents and documented operational shortcomings.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
