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.

The computed disputed_pct is 9%, which falls in the 0–10% approve band. The single disputed item (claim_findings[20]) is an internal structural inconsistency — the Systemic Analysis section labels nine enumerated attacks as 'seven core incidents' — which is an editorial error, not a factual misrepresentation of external events. The most material accuracy concern is the temporally misleading framing of the $328.6M YTD bridge loss figure (claim_findings[2]), which originates from mid-May 2026 PeckShield data but is presented as a July year-to-date total; however, the 'at least' qualifier and the July source's own 'earlier in the year' language partially mitigate this. Core incident data — amounts, dates, attack vectors, and technical mechanics across all seven attacks — is confirmed by multiple Tier-1 sources including CoinDesk, The Block, and CoinTelegraph, with security-firm post-mortems from Halborn and BlockSec providing technical corroboration. Two high-priority coverage gaps are noted (absence of on-chain transaction evidence and unresolved white-hat bounty outcomes, including the Wanchain August 6 deadline that has now passed) but coverage gaps alone do not warrant denial or revision under current policy.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
