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 primary factual error is characterizing total 2024 crypto theft as '$1.2 billion' when the authoritative full-year figure (Chainalysis) was approximately $2.2 billion, causing an incorrect 2.2% Penpie contribution estimate. Minor issues include the Pendle mainnet date (June 16 vs June 17 UTC), TN Lee's Kyber Network role understated as 'Business Development' rather than co-founder, and the slight ETH amount discrepancy between the 11,261.2 ETH laundered figure and the official Penpie post-mortem's 11,113.6 ETH stolen figure. Two cited URLs (Zokyo post-mortem blog and Cointelegraph Magazine) returned 404 on direct fetch, constituting link rot.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
