I can provide a signed message from my public bitfunder shareholder address, I also don't see how can this be considered a blackhole? Is this not the reason for providing a shareholder in my control so that after providing a signed message, dividends can continue to paid as that signed message is proof of ownership of the bitcoin address.
Going to be honest with you... I've read that paragraph about 8 times now and I still don't understand it. Could you rephrase it please?
I also didn't use a google email for bitfunder either so how would you verify my ownership of shares if you do not accept a signed message as proof?
We accept signed messages as proof of share ownership
exclusively. If you can please point me to where anyone stated otherwise I'd like to go rectify it because it's categorically wrong.
You're free to use any email address of your choosing, as long as it's linked to a Google account (currently the only OpenID provider icedrill.io supports). It does not need to be a gmail email address, or even the one you used @ bitfunder.
