It is not dirty but I put this message in the blockchain forever:

https://blockchain.info/tx/bf40e4a1c2546747bc800a085e7145d921a9f402aaf4040c155ff5d0df9cc999

That must have taken a lot of valuable time. Which sucks because nobody else would bother to read it.

That is not the issue, the issue is that illegal information could be conveyed that way

Top secret stuff, terrorism ... would that turn the entire blockchain illegal?
It wouldn't turn the entire blockchain illegal.. but it would certainly put you on a watch list.

And I doubt terrorists would reveal their latest plans somewhere where anybody can read it.


An excellent point... to play devil's advocate though, they could send out a notice saying "go now" or something, signalling other jihadis to start an operation they planned earlier.
Why would they even bother having to leave a message? Might as well just say.. the moment 1 satoshi gets sent to an address as the signal to go.

I think it would be unlikely, but in theory possible. There would likely be other, easier way to send this message however. Shortly after 9/11/11 videos surfaced of Bin Ladin that showed erroneous date/timestamps, it was thought that these timestamps may have included some kind of message so the media self -censored the timestamps to prevent them from being disseminated.

Which again would make no sense, because there are more convenient methods that don't involve leaving a gargantuan trace visible to all users of the internet.

This exact subject has been discussed dozens of time before in dozens of threads.  You might try the search function.

Every day there are tons of threads opened that were discussed before but people changes and the search box is a unknown function for most.

But hardly anyone will read the messages, it seems a bit of waste. The blockchain.info comments are more interesting, but these comments are not part of blockchain actually, just blockchain.info stores these comments

CoinSecrets has all of the OP_RETURN pushed data from the blockchain on it. OP_RETURN lets you stick in 40 bytes of whatever you'd like in every transaction.

It was only a matter of time and when one person tried it and it worked then more would have followed in suit and so on meaning now it's a pretty common thing.

yes, you can "TAG" a mined block (that you have found) in bitcoin blockchain (for ever) ... but that all.

one can leave permanent messages in the blockchain

No.

you talk about the blockchain.info that it have "comments" on block, transaction or adress.
If you use an other reader : http://btc.blockr.io/address/info/1AqTMY7kmHZxBuLUR5wJjPFUvqGs23sesr

You don't have any commentar available.

---

The Blockchain of bitcoin (physical files of the 6000 nodes of bitcoin-qt) don't allow message text in transaction.


You can also put messages in but they are encoded.  The first block has a message in the coinbase field which is the field to send the block reward and here is how you decode it
