The informal-formal thread to verify addresses should remain the same:  Stake your Bitcoin address here. This current thread you are on here does not guarantee quoting and verifying messages, and is intended solely as a reminder to a, what seems to me, good practice (+ xMas wishes).[/i] It's better to keep the quating and verifying protocol where it normally resides ...

<...>

I'd still add it to the Stake your Bitcoin address here thread ...

Here is a small puzzle to solve in the holiday. Try to figure out what is interesting about this message and receive up to 20 merits from me. There is 2 interesting parts, 10 merit per part
Happy 2020 everyone.
<...>

You may need to give some clues here at some point ... I've seen the address is not on the  Stake your Bitcoin address here thread. I asume you have another one there though, and this one is for the puzzle per se.

Previously I have signed a message with my SegWit bitcoin address. But did not stake the address. Today I inspired by this topic and create a legacy bitcoin wallet via electrum and try to sign a message. You can find my this address Stake your Bitcoin address [Just I have staked there]

[Baofeng]

Thank you for the reminder. This is my old staking, http://archive.is/AAPUH for reference. That was in 2017. Then I used this address until early 2018 because I bought a new laptop, create new address and totally forgot my old address. So I have to dig up my old laptop and sign a message after more than a year.

Signing your address and PGP keys should be something that you routinely perform just like changing your password. I know a lot of us do not change our passwords regular but this is something that you can do together. Every time you change your password you should post a topic in archival and include your signed message with your staked address. This confirms that the person holding the address is the one to change the password.

Passwords are recommended to be changed every 6 months at least which means you would have 2 times a year at least where you can practice signing an address and at the same time verifying that the account is safe and the password has not been changed maliciously.

I have noticed on this thread and the staked address thread that members do not include a specific time and date that they signed the address. Including the exact time could bring problems but at least include the date that the message was signed. This is a good practice and should be performed in the universal time format. The only issue with signing your address regularly which could increase the probability of the private key being maliciously captured so it is vital that you follow the best security practices when signing an address. I would recommend booting up a live cd on a clean hard drive and checking that the network you connect to is owned by you and is secure.

Signing your address and PGP keys should be something that you routinely perform just like changing your password.

it is apples and oranges. each time you sign a message from your key, you are revealing your public key. it is subjected to the same issues that discourages address reuse and the same reason why we use P2PKH, P2WPKH (pay to hash of pubkey) instead of P2PK (pay to pubkey itself). we try not to reveal the public key until the last moment.

that is why i never understand why people sign a message when they want to "stake" their address, although i did the same thing myself.

that is why i never understand why people sign a message when they want to "stake" their address, although i did the same thing myself.

The only thing that comes to mind is that when you sign a message you prove that you hold the private key of that address. So, the scammer cannot say that " the staked address belongs to a wallet which doesn't let me to sign a message. I didn't know this when I staked my address", however I am sure Theymos will not accept such a claim.

My old stake address here.

But since I've been using Segwit address for the last couple of years, I haven't sign it for a long time. But because of the OP's reminder here it is:
