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.

The WOO X figures match the primary source, the $25M theft traced by ZachXBT is confirmed, and the insider case ($1.4M, Taipei court, fine option) is confirmed. One claim is unsupported by its citation: the statement that Kronos said losses would be covered internally with no partners affected is not in the cited Cointelegraph article, and WOO X was visibly affected. The NT$42M figure and the 2023-08-27 'conviction' date are also not supported by the cited source; that date is the article's publication date. The firm still operates, and the page does not mention that trading resumed or the Feb 2026 Proxima change.
