Yes. There are wallets that support Mac operating system that you can use to sign a message. But, I will recommend you to use electrum wallet. You can download it on your Mac computer. Do not use third party site to download it. Visit the official electrum wallet site for the download, you can easily download it from there and also check the signature. Use below link for the download.

https://electrum.org/#download).

Yes, you can sign messages using the Mac version of Electrum or Bitcoin Core. However, please note, Bitcoin Core cannot sign messages using a Segwit address.

Thank you! I will try and share feedback with you here soon!

You make me confusing. Why do I need to use online tool to verify a bitcoin signed message?

Electrum is a non-custodial wallet and I have full control on my wallet. It allows me to sign and verify bitcoin message.

I verified it like this:

Message

Code:

Hi this is Lordrift and I can sign a message

Yes, I verified it again and I did verified it with my Electrum.


The online tool you used is bitcoin.com. It is a site of Bitcoin Cash. It is a trash, OMG

there is nothing wrong with the signature that was made, and it is true what is mentioned by SquirrelJulietGarden if the signature can be verified via Electrum, this is the proof



I tried several online tools and from that online tools I use, none of them can verify the sign message. so the problem is very clear it's because of the tools not because of the sign.

So in order words my signature is okay?

[OgNasty]

Yes.

[Lordrift]

Yes.

Okay, thanks a lot
At least I have learnt something new and that is how to sign a message with a bitcoin address.
I promise to contribute to the forum in any way I can thank you.

Now, I can sign a message. I even verified it on another person's wallet and it verified. It did not work before because I verified it on the same wallet I signed it I guess.

Address: 1LsVqQEagejm7K5TURJ5vcviS7Qi6hvqBL
Message: signed message
Signature: H8aA60BSbYo2hecJwzCzwUicc1l5r4FhRcPMhD4YHunCVOSz0XZ8ZYz4vHxRczNcE9N2dVvANrE0obg sEX+vxx0=

[SquirrelJulietGarden]

I hope that you did not give your private key from the another person. If you did give it up, you should not use that address because that person can be able to steal your bitcoin.

It did not work before because I verified it on the same wallet I signed it I guess.

If the inputs are correct, you can verify your sign message on your computer, on the same wallet, or on other devices and other wallets. Everyone can verify a signed message if inputs are correct (no typo).

Typo is not restricted to typo.

If you add or cut space, make line breaks when you verify a message, you will not verify it because the input is different than what owner used to sign that message.

With the same address you use to sign, if you input different message like these (in the Message area), you will get different Signatures.

Code:

Message: signed message

message: signed message

signed message

Message:signed message

Message: signed message  (add 1 or 2 more space at the end)

Thanks though,
This forum has made me realize things I didn't already know before now and I will try as much as possible to educate other members of the forum in my area of expertise and also promote Bitcoin anywhere I find myself

I'm glad you finally got it right, but "signed message" doesn't include your username and could just be some signed message example you got off the internet somewhere...
