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.

However, several of the page's own citations do not actually support what they are cited for: the CoinMarketCap source gives a conflicting 2021 launch date, the Atomic Wallet source never mentions Safety Shot at all despite being the sole citation for that claim, and the Blockchain Council source doesn't mention a Bonk DAO despite being cited in a sentence referencing one. More materially, the page's blanket claim of 'no protocol-level exploits recorded' is now stale: a July 2026 BonkDAO governance attack drained roughly $20M from the project's treasury, an incident the page omits entirely. No disputed (outright-contradicted) claims were found, and no accepted community submissions existed to review.","score_delta":0,"sequence_num":5,"submission_content_hash":null,"submission_id":null,"submission_kind":null,"submission_valence":null,"v":1}
