I want to sell my Sr. Member account. The account was created over two years ago. The account has no negative trust.
There are much more posts than activity. The account has an avatar.

I want to sell the account as I am more active on Reddit. Also I do need Bitcoin  Wink

Want to sell the account for 0.34B

If you want to buy the account, you can send me a joke via PM (search one on Google or so) and I will tweet the joke on my Twitter account.
If you are extra paranoid...  Grin I have an established blog with over 900 articles, and I can send you a link to one of my old articles and then I could add a certain text message below the post.... I think this would prove ownership of the account. I can even send you a PM on Reddit if you like... all these accounts are well established... so, there is no way that I would be able to hack all of them without that the owner would take ownership back. My blog has a link to my Twitter account, my Twitter account a link to my blog... in fact to two of my blogs.
What I want to say is, this is a safe deal here  Smiley I can even show you some Bitcoin related articles on my blog, you will hopefully tip me if you like the articles!!!  Grin I am kidding... you get the point,... I simply can prove ownership.

Let me know if you are interested in my bitcointalk Sr. Member account.

i think the latter 2/3 of this post says nothing; all we need is a signed message from an old address posted in an unedited post from a few months ago to prove ownership.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

I've seen the stuff about signing messages... problem is I don't understand it. I used Bitcoin to buy humblebundle games for Steam, or for other transactions... never signed a message, I don't know how it works and especially how it proves ownership. Can you explain?

There is no way that I could hack both, a Twitter account and well established blog. Both accounts are heavily active since 6 years, if it would be hacked, the owner would get the accounts back asap... there is not a single time where I did stop to publish posts on my blog... this is a heavily active blog including twitter account.

But anyway, if you explain me how signing a message works with Bitcoin, I probably can do this too... my bitcointalk account is real and I am the owner since creation.

this link will tell you everything you need. also, your words of "how could i have hacked all these accounts" isnt really even a valid excuse; if they all had the same password and username, as many people still do, its not a question of hacking all of them, you only need one.

theres nothing here. message me if you want to put something here.

Thank you I will check the thread out... but...

It is a valid excuse. You know why? The blog has photos of my cat uploaded six years ago, but I never stopped to upload new photos of her. Same about stories of my home town and so on and the photos. Where would I get all the photos if I would be a hacker? You can even do google reverse image search to find out that the photos are only used on one blog, my blog (ok probably shared to Twitter and Pinterest later on). So, do you think a hacker would hack a blog and write on it for 6 years? He would have sold the blog and the content would have changed... but on this blog there is a straight line... the main content are personal photo stories and that since 6 years... one of the very posts on this blog (6 years ago) is my cat, then you find posts from july with the exact same cat. How would this be possible? Cheesy

you can call it proof if you want, but a signed message is by far simpler and gives assurance that you are the original owner of the account. also, potential buyers arent about to go through 6 years worth of photos to verify that youre the owner when they can simply copy and paste the address, message, and signature to verify. what's valid to you isnt necessarily valid to everyone on this forum.

Yes it is proof, I could even put a paper on the head of my cat with a message that the buyer thought out lol. Went through the tutorial and don't get it... that is something very complicated for me... I don't even know where I have a bitcoin address in my bitcointalk account. Also I absolutey don't get how it proofs ownership of the account... could not just anybody send a message through a bitcoin address to say that it's their account? Especially, where exactly is a bitcoin address linked to my account?

I just say it again, a hacker who does sell stolen accounts while he tells the buyer things like his 6 years old but still active blog domain, twitter account and so on... that must be a really dull hacker. Cheesy

So, anybody interested in my account anyway?

it proves ownership as a valid message can only be signed if the individual signing the message controls the private key of the associated address. ie no one else can sign a valid messag from that address since they do not control its private key; assuming you posted an address say, for a signature campaign to receive payouts to, you could sign a message from that address. as far as potential buyers are concerned who will only care for a signed message, your excuses dont prove anything, and avoiding the question only adds to suspicion of a hacked account. take it how you will, im trying to help you get a sale by encouraging a signed message from you, but youre free to disregard my words completely of course.

Don't get me wrong, I am not mad at you for telling me. I just tried to understand.... and I do understand that buyers might be extra careful, just see this forum, full of scammers and crap... I am even concerned that  a scammer will buy my account, I rather hope someone will buy to enter signature campaigns instead of scamming people. But here is the problem...

1. I never posted one of my bitcoin addresses in this forum. I think I did that in 2013 when I was newbie and when I hoped someone would tip me through my signature (lol) but I acquired Bitcoin on my own and deleted the signature with my address in 2014 or so. Since then I never added my bitcoin address again to my signature. I also never posted my address anywhere. Thus, I can not sell my account now. I would now have to post an address anywhere to sell the accounts two months later?

2. I start to get the point. Accounts are rather buyed to scam and not to earn via signature campaigns? Thus, the potential buyer wants me to link the account to my bitcoin address, basically to my indentity so that he can do horrible things and the police will ring on my door and I can not even say "Look, this account was sold to a stranger, it was not me!"? To be honest, I don't like that.. and if that is the case, I rather don't sell the account.

3. It point 2 is true, isn't it a problem for the buyer? I mean I could basically contact the admin of bitcointalk and say "This account is mine and was hacked by a stranger, can you please link it back to my email address?".

You probably notice, I am very confused.

I don't disregard your words, I just try to understand if it's wise to sign a message and how it is done without ever having an address posted to my bitcointalk account. And now I feel more concerned that this might be to link my identity to the account forever.

I really just want to get rid of the account to increase my wallet... I do even have a Steam account with over 200 games, the buyer could add me there as well, I have a teamspeak server where we could even talk about the deal (although my english is horrible, hehe). I don't disregard your words, it's just that I offer quite a lot to proof ownership of the account, something that I rarely see here... except for those who understand how to sign a message, but there are quite a lot of threads where people don't offer anything to proof ownership, that was my point.

Thanks for helping, I still hope that someone is interested in the deal. Meanwhile I try to find out if I can still sign a message.. maybe I find the last posted signature BTC address via Google cache... also I need to find out if that is good at all for me.

you do not even specify what activity your account ... might look similar ads, specify all the parameters significantly increase the price of your account

I think the mentioned price is very fair. I do not think that I get much more for it. Are you interested?

Selling an account with no real information given about the account besides what is stated in the OP. You don't want to provide a signed message or probably CAN'T and you're dodging questions like the fucking Matrix. I'm thinking you're either here to scam or you are just...stupid.

Either way, I'm interested but I want MORE information about the account and I want you to provide a signed message from an address posted by the account at least 3 months ago before I consider anything seriously.

Account activity is 252. I can not sign a message as far as I understand, due to the fact that I did not have a bitcoin address posted anywhere in the forum.
