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.

Four claims received a 'partially supported' rating: claim_findings[6] (TWAP oracle framing) adds interpretive language not contradicted by any source; claim_findings[16] (CertiK audit listing) overstates what Gamma's official audit documentation page shows, with CertiK's involvement predating the Gamma Strategies brand and unconfirmed in first-party docs; claim_findings[21] (merger timeline date) places the Visor-Gamma merger at January 2022 when the primary source dates the announcement to December 23, 2021; and claim_findings[22] (OpenZeppelin start date) is an inference from 'early the following week' rather than an explicit stated date. None of these involve the core exploit mechanics, loss figures, or attacker attribution. A modest score penalty of -5 reflects the CertiK overstatement against a Tier 1 source and the off-by-days merger date, both of which should be corrected. Two high-priority coverage gaps (post-exploit fund tracing and actual recovery pool disbursement progress) are noted for editorial expansion but do not warrant downgrade.","score_delta":-5,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
