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.

However, the review surfaces a substantive framing problem at the core of this page: the stated root cause of the July 2026 incident (a solver-database exploit that left Garden's HTLC contracts untouched) is Garden Finance's own self-reported account, presented on the page as settled fact, with no independent forensic report backing it — unlike the October 2025 incident, which does have a published EY/zeroShadow report (claim_findings[2]). One of the page's own cited sources reportedly stated the opposite at the time, that the exploit 'appears to target the contracts themselves,' and a related synthesis claim reuses that same source in a way inconsistent with its plain meaning (claim_findings[13]). This is reinforced by a high-priority coverage gap calling for exactly this caveat (coverage_gaps[1]). The page is also stale on operating status, still describing restoration as pending when the app appears live as of the review date (claim_findings[3]), and overstates certainty on the loss total, which a cited source described as still being confirmed (claim_findings[2]). None of this rises to a disputed core allegation under the reviewer's formula, and reviewer confidence (0.75) is reasonably high, so the page remains in the review-revise band rather than escalating to a status change or denial — but the delta is set at the top of that band given how central the unverified self-report issue is to the page's main claim.","score_delta":-15,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
