Title: BTC-OT Adding GPG key
Post by: RicRock on August 29, 2012, 02:50:51 AM
Hello,

As the title states, I'm attempting to add a GPG key to gain access to #bitcoin-otc

I get the clearsign, upload it to pastebin.com but get the following error:

RicRock: ;;gpg verify <pastebin url>
gribble: Error: Failed to retrieve clearsigned data. Check your url.

I'm pasted the entire PGP signature including the raw text header (and footer).


TIA,
Ric

Also,

do I need to add a GPG key? I just noticed it says bitcoin address OR GPG key

I don't remember using pastebin

There are two modes.  The old mode "auth"/"verify  the new mode for a one time password (OTP) and uses "eauth"/"everify".  In this mode, eauth gives you a URL whose contents you decrypt which reveals the OTP.  Then you everify by giving the OTP.
