Hi redsn0w,

-----END BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

For everyone that tried to verify this, but couldnt get it working on brainwallet. Its missing a "-"
it should be:

Code:

-----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

but its:

Code:

----BEGIN BITCOIN SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Every other tool used to verify should not have that problem. I just copied the modified version from bensam123.

Is it safe to connect your account with the bitcoin address? I have heard some people say that they don't want to take the risk of connecting the account as it could be hacked.

An unedited message or post with a bitcoin address can actually help you to recover a hacked account. Theymos mentions this in the thread about restoring accounts[1]. Its not fail safe though.

Regarding PGP, there are probably over 9000 good tutorials. If you find one that works for you thats great. Just be carefull what you download. If you feel you need someone to show you the way, attent a local cryptoparty[2]. I will focus on signatures with bitcoin addresses first and once that todo list is processed start with PGP.
