Messages from the Mines is a fascinating archive of messages embedded in the Bitcoin blockchain. The site features an interactive art installation that collects hidden messages — love notes, poems, ASCII art, signatures — from Bitcoin transactions between 2009 and 2018. The homepage is visually striking with a rotating cube and clear description. However, the archive didn’t load properly in my browser, so I couldn’t explore individual messages. Providing a lightweight viewer or sample messages would make the project more accessible. It’s a unique concept, and I look forward to improvements.
