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
- 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. - 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.
- 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 one materially imprecise claim is the attribution of Stripe and Salesforce to Dan Liu's pre-Luma career — independent research points to Google, Uber, and PlanGrid for the Luma co-founder specifically, with the Stripe/Salesforce profile belonging to a different individual named Danqing Liu. All other factual assertions including wallet metrics, incident details, GitHub activity, and regulatory status are confirmed. An ancillary finding is that Luma Labs' San Francisco business registration shows an end date of December 31, 2024, which the page does not address; however, the product remains active and this does not appear to indicate a shutdown.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
