I made a mistake today signing a message and didn't get the info before i x it out. I found that if you write the info again in small letters it will gen. a new public key. I just thought that this may be useful to someone. I dont know.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

I don't know either. This is a pretty obscure post.
But if that can help, everything involved in signing messages, crafting transactions, sharing addresses, and basically everything about BTC is case-sensitive.

I won't ever ask for a loan nor offer any escrow service. If I do, please consider my account as hacked.

I don't understand. Can't you just generate a new signed message? Are you using Bitcoin-QT?
