Crypto investment giant Galaxy Digital's research unit Galaxy Research has spotted a mystery poem popping up on the Bitcoin blockchain for the last two weeks. According to Galaxy Research, an unknown user has sent 26 duplicates of the same poem onto the Bitcoin blockchain. The mysterious poem is: "thoughtless quartz clocks drift / blocks stack each a strict proof / timechain keeps score" Galaxy Research took to X on Oct. 24 to explain that the mystery sender has been injecting the same message into Bitcoin transactions. It stored the duplicates in 103-byte OP_RETURN outputs that have surpassed the previous default relay limit on Bitcoin of 83 bytes. Moreover, the research unit found that the same cryptographic keys have been used to issue another poem twice.
