You want to sign a message with your address (more correctly speaking, your private key)? Or you want to attach a message to your tx? Title: Re: Can I add a message to a transaction? Post by: gweedo on May 27, 2014, 03:51:43 PM I don't think he means signing and verifying messages.
I think he wants what blockchain.info supports messages in the blockchain. You can do this with blockchain.info wallet but it is only visiable on their site, it isn't a feature of bitcoin.

You can do this with blockchain.info wallet but it is only visiable on their site, it isn't a feature of bitcoin. He could use OP_RETURN to include a short message on the blockchain (not the site blockchain.info), but he will need to play with raw transaction (please be extremely careful!). You can see people have been doing such thing already. http://coinsecrets.org/ :) Title: Re: Can I add a message to a transaction? Post by: ranochigo on May 28, 2014, 10:33:04 AM How? And how can someone see it? I think nearly all of the wallets includes the feature of adding a message to the transaction. Note that you cannot remove it, it will be permanent to the blockchain and everyone can see it.-ranochigo Title: Re: Can I add a message to a transaction?

None of the wallets provide any user interface for adding messages into the blockchain. Title: Re: Can I add a message to a transaction? Post by: ranochigo on May 28, 2014, 01:15:54 PM How?

None of the wallets provide any user interface for adding messages into the blockchain. That is not "permanent in the blockchain". That is a service provided by the blockchain.info company. If you use their wallet, then they let you create a message that they store in their own database and they display on their website. This is not a feature of bitcoin, nor of the actual blockchain. You cannot create those messages with any wallet except blockchain.info Title: Re: Can I add a message to a transaction? Post by: ranochigo on May 28, 2014, 02:19:52 PM How?

Post by: roeylee on May 28, 2014, 04:32:32 PM Are colored coins (e.g. coinprism) store a message that indicates the color?

If so, where is this option? Title: Re: Can I add a message to a transaction? Post by: gweedo on May 29, 2014, 06:35:01 PM Outside from blockchain, can other wallets like btc qt do the same? If so, where is this option? No |
