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.

However, two of the specific errors carry disproportionate weight: claim_findings[6] states the Arkham Intelligence report identified '44 wallet addresses' when the cited Tier 1 source explicitly identifies 35 addresses — this numerical error sits in the critical-severity section that is the factual core of the investigation. Separately, claim_findings[11] incorrectly attributes the time-bar ruling to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 when the Paul Weiss Tier 1 legal memo confirms the claims were under the Securities Act of 1933 — a legally meaningful distinction in a critical-severity section. Additional issues requiring correction include: the Mission 70 NNS vote is dated to January 2026 (whitepaper publication) when the governance vote occurred in April 2026 (claim_findings[17]); CanisterWorm is dated to 2025 when reporting places the campaign in early 2026; the circulating supply figure of 527 million is outdated by approximately 25 million tokens; and Dominic Williams' degree is attributed to UCL when his own public profile confirms King's College London (claim_findings[19]). Three high-priority coverage gaps — post-April 2025 amended complaint status, absence of SEC/CFTC regulatory engagement coverage, and reliance on a single firm for insider wallet attribution — further support revision over approval. Core claims about the token collapse magnitude, litigation dismissal outcome, funding rounds, and market data ranges are broadly accurate.","score_delta":-12,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
