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.

However, the investigation contains several unverified or incorrect specific details: the Pashov audit is dated January 2025 but the actual report date is February 12, 2025; the protocol launch date (January 2024) and Coinbase EAS integration date (June 2024) have no evidentiary basis; the CryptoTimes and Halborn publication dates in the timeline are wrong (February 26 and March 2 respectively, not March 1); one cited source (dev.to) returns 404; and the specific 22:05 UTC timestamp for fund return is unverifiable. The Halborn source contains a likely-erroneous $427k figure for the Veil Cash loss that contradicts the 2.9 ETH consensus.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":2,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
