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 reviewer found zero disputed claims (disputed_pct = 0%) and confirmed the page content is accurate. Scroll is a legitimate, credentialed Ethereum Layer 2 protocol backed by Polychain Capital and Bain Capital Crypto with $83M in documented VC funding. As established by claim_findings[4], no fraud, exit scam, or misappropriation of user funds exists in any source: the $50K gas fee overcharge was a documented manual configuration error and the Security Council dissolution (claim_findings[5]) was a cost-cutting response to ecosystem outflows, not governance capture. The WARNING band (score 42) requires elevated fraud or loss risk — none of the documented incidents meet that threshold. The CAUTIONARY band (score 58) is appropriate for a legitimate protocol with material operational caveats: a configuration error affecting 139K transactions, governance centralization concerns, and severe TVL decline. A positive delta of +16 moves the score to 58 to reflect this recalibration. The page remains published and accurate.","score_delta":16,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
