Neither of those links works for me
Did you know that the #Monero genesis block contains a hidden message in the coinbase field?
https://moneroblocks.info/block/0
Look for the "Coinbase" or "Extra" field; it appears in plain text.
Why is it visible?
And what does the message say?
The coinbase field is special in the block (not a regular transaction). It doesn't use RingCT or stealth addresses, so it's not private.
From block 1 onward, all transactions are opaque.
