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.

Both disputed claims (claim_findings[13] and claim_findings[24]) target the same underlying fact: the stated all-time low of $0.0001945 on April 2, 2026. CoinMarketCap records a historical ATL of $0.0000214 from October 2024, approximately 9x lower, and CoinGecko's own ATL has since fallen below the stated figure. This is a factual error in a secondary price statistic but does not affect the page's core conclusions about entity identity, risk profile, or the ~99.9% decline narrative. A minor score adjustment reflects the ATL inaccuracy and the misapplied SEC source (claim_findings[22]), which uses a general FY2025 enforcement summary as evidence of regulatory absence rather than a direct OFAC or SEC entity search. Two high-priority coverage gaps — holder concentration analysis and current platform operational status — are noted for future expansion but do not support denial.","score_delta":-5,"sequence_num":5,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
