(Latterly, the chain has been storing only asset and notarisation data):
ASSET:{{{{{md5 => c9d89438361ce6ed1fce8f7c50a9a92a, owner => DTC:D8GafEsbyssg4TQN71KTbd8QdRg846MxCQ, inputtx => FirstIssue, previousowner => DTC:D8GafEsbyssg4TQN71KTbd8QdRg846MxCQ, idop => JIE1}, prevownersign => H5OkR1dpSl0jfvRqfmmFw45SsG015RVF0AN+k1HZ40DHVtCHxuMAE60HLmQ3rmW1FS3/tHdsCLsGeHffNhPWfrE=}, bytestampsign => IGJWfWswMuPkbRx5BcErqFNDgygcdjTaCz4UmNcxEYjTdHmZMRtZN2nbO7KkzmkRH5DXt7tU0eGth8x khtXtrkY=}, prevhash => 39b8c8baa6cfe1c370816175265f71ab}, hash => a75f1175388b2ccbe4325284af5a1587}
I dumped everything that reported as "text/plain" into a (3.5Mb) text dump, one entry per line (
also available from mega.nz)
I would like to help interpreting these "text/plain" entries, as a lot of them were made by ByteStamp.
ByteStamp makes a notarization service computing a particular digest to avoid MD5 collisions.
This digest is calculated using a concatenation of MD5, SHA512 and Keccak-512 of the file. On the resulting string we calculate MD5 again, so we have the so called ByteStampMD5. In this way, a collision is impossible.
If you read the above text dump from @gjhiggins, there are a lot of ByteStamp entries.
In order to understand the meaning of these record, you have to look at how the string begins.
If the string begin with:
MR]-*@_/DW --> this is a comma separated list of ByteStampMD5. Each ByteStampMD5 is a ByteStampProof (Proof Of Existence)
MR]-0@_/DW --> this is a comma separated list of 4 elements. The first is a ByteStampMD5 of a bytestamped file, the second is the ByteStampMD5 of its note, 3 and 4 is for future implementations. This is the case of a file with a note, so we link the note to the file in the blockchain. Here is an example of a bytestamped file with a note:
