Ok, you can’t verify it on Electrum. But does the message appear as valid when you use it in whatever you are trying to sign it for? (The bounty/bot that gives you the claimed coins, which is what you are trying to do?)

No, it doesn't accept it and says "A valid Bitcoin signature is required!".
But it worked very well with other 2 addresses.
Only this one has such problem.

When I sign the message with one of my BTC addresses on Electrum and then verify it on the same wallet it says "wrong signature". The same message signed with other BTC addresses is correct. How to resolve this issue?
The address is native segwit (starts with bc1).


It might be a copy-paste issue.If you have created the message  by some text redactor like WORD and transfer in to Electrum via copy-paste then It might be messed with reserved character. Try to put you message into Electrum by using keyboard.


Thank you for your advice.
I tried to put the message by using keyboard, but it didn't help.
The message is still the same and incorrect.

There is still no common standard to sign from bc1 address... so might be some strange combination of characters that mislead Electrum's signer... could you sign if   HEX string in your message would be removed? 

If I remove or change any symbol in the message it gets signed correctly with no problem. But the original message still has an issue.

There's no problem with message. I signed the same message using my address and everything went well.

As soon as you generate the signature, Electrum allows you to click the verify signature button. Do you still get the "wrong signature" message?

Yes, exactly, it is the case. As soon as I generate the signature, and push "verify" it says "wrong signature"

You need to provide more details, I have already signed and checked many messages using Electrum with Legacy and Segwit addresses. Is your sign generated normally? Have you tried to verify this message in another verifier?

Try putting your message / address / sign here so we can test as well.


Here are more details:
1. The message I try to sign: Claim_HEX_to_0x3A72cA4d32d272CC02832F4096a40C2c326DfFfb
2. the address I use: bc1q63tz9rvlnjxpz39nvueuu49t6m7cygfynj6krw
3. the signature I get: IFkS40AxIuRGDN/vnjwavfV6R00h3MKArtDB7tpBbnqIMc6WSGIQm/wm4lN7JVbY6jbeMf27x8VOqI6azgwz2Q==

When I push "Verify the message" it says "Wrong signature".

It works well with all other BTC addresses, but not with this one.
Also, it works well with other messages and with this address.

I use the latest version of Electrum 3.3.8 downloaded from https://electrum.org/

Thank you.
