In the network bitcoin found illegal content

Researchers from the Universities of Aachen and Frankfurt found that in the network of bitcoins, in addition to financial information, about 1600 other files are stored.

  Of these, 7 files violate copyrights: they contain fragments from a different whitepaper, a private RSA key, a secret software key and a key to cracking the DVD copy protection.

  Also, the locker of bitcoin stores six wedding photos and a snapshot of people with their online nicknames.

  609 transactions include records of chats, electronic correspondence, messages on thematic forums, including full disclosure of users' personal information.

  It also holds a copy of the diplomatic telegrams of the United States, the leakage of which occurred through WikiLeaks in 2010, and the news of the demonstration in Hong Kong in 2014.

  Eight files in the bitcoin blockage contain sexual information, including a picture of child abuse and two files with 274 links to similar resources, 142 of which lead to services in a darkweb.

  Researchers believe that, under the laws of countries such as Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States, the use of a blockade with prohibited content can be interpreted as a serious offense, which jeopardizes the entire crypto-currency market.  First of all, the risks concern the mining of crypto-currencies.

  Recall that in 2015, Interpol already warned that the principle of the blockade allows you to infect the network with malicious software that can not be deleted.
