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.

No claims were directly disputed. Seven claims are partially supported, but these involve precision issues rather than contradictions — the exact RARE token ATH price (claim_findings[10]: $3.79 vs $3.61 per CoinGecko), the recovery percentage (claim_findings[5]: 41% vs 35% depending on measurement window), and the derivatives volume doubling (claim_findings[18]: sourced only from AI-generated summaries). One claim is unverifiable (claim_findings[16]: PeckShield and Blockaid flagging), a minor corroboration detail. Link rot on the CoinTelegraph source (404) and HTTP 403 on the 99bitcoins article affects secondary post-hack response sourcing. Two high-priority coverage gaps — absence of on-chain transaction evidence and no official SuperRare primary statement for the reimbursement — should be addressed to bring the page to a higher evidentiary standard, but they represent expansion needs rather than factual errors.","score_delta":-7,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
