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.

Nineteen claims are fully confirmed by primary sources including the IRS, FBI, and SEC; the corrected flight date (April 6, 2026) and Los Angeles recapture (on or about April 15, 2026) in claim_findings[2] and claim_findings[3] are both confirmed by FBI Most Wanted official records, resolving the stale-status issue that triggered the prior revision cycle. Three claims are partially supported with only minor discrepancies: the UK winding-up order date (claim_findings[19]) reflects use of the Insolvency Service press release date (October 27, 2022) rather than the Gazette court order date (September 13, 2022), which is a contextual annotation error and not a disputed core allegation; the plea date range 'September 16-18' (claim_findings[1]) overstates by two days; and the UK misappropriation figure (claim_findings[20]) rounds £205,000 to £200,000. None of these affect any critical-severity finding. No link rot, no stale citations, and no high-priority coverage gaps were identified.
