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 most material issue is claim_findings[11]: the Bitwise Dogecoin ETF is misidentified as ticker DOJE on Cboe, when it actually trades as BWOW on NYSE Arca — both the ticker and exchange are factually wrong, confirmed by SEC EDGAR and Tier 1 sources. Additionally, the summary's ~$17B market cap and top-10 ranking (claim_findings[1]) are stale as of June 2026, with DOGE now ranked approximately 11th at ~$14.8–15.6B. The 'self-absorbed grifter' Palmer quote is conflated with the July 2021 thread in claim_findings[5] and the timeline, when that phrase came from a separate deleted May 2021 tweet. A high-priority coverage gap also flags that both ETF products have since launched and the page still describes them as filings.","score_delta":-10,"sequence_num":3,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
