Messages written on the wall are embedded in the blockchain, the public registry underneath bitcoin.
There are over 5 thousands copies of this ledger all around the world and soon it will also be in space.
Even if the site goes down or disappears, your message is guaranteed to persist for generations to come.

This app is really brilliant!
It will shoo away twitter because its messages are eternal, uncensorable, independent, timestamp and signed.
You can declare your love with or without your name so your partner will remember it for the eternity.
Or you can write who will win the next election; you can prove it: messages are timestamped.
Or you can freely express all your thoughts; no government will be able to delete it.
In short, you can feel free to express all your ideas. Good job! :-)
I started to write something and then stopped myself. A message being there 'for eternity' makes me feel a bit like I'm etching 'Alice woz ere' on the Great Pyramid. Nice concept - but there is something about it which jars.

Damn! I coded together something similar that never made it 😜

nothing is forever. you should change to "a really long time"
@rcasatta, good stuff. Though, I personally expected to see it implemented on Sia or Storj, just because these two alts are designed specifically for storage purposes while Bitcoin Blockchain is for keeping financial records. Anyways, that's a good approach. I'm curious, if I could reach out to you to discuss crypto-related project. So, if you're a dev who digs cryptos, please, let me know.
@pavelpekanov You are right, there are many storage specific projects out there.
However all of them still have a small network and less economic incentive compared to bitcoin. For this reasons, we feel more comfortable to promise eternity by writing on the Bitcoin Blockchain.
As long people find affordable and attractive to pay the transaction fee for a non financial purpose, I can't see the reason why they don't because it wasn't designed for that.
Yes, I am a crypto-dev, I am following you here and on twitter so you can reach me.
