Which bitcoin wallet are you using?
If you are using bitcoin core, click "File", "Sign message", enter your bitcoin address and messsage, and finally click the "Sign Message" button.
I did this the first time today. I got my signature, so what do I do with it? How do I check this message? |
"The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks" 😼 Bitcoin Core ( onion) |

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Quoting doesn't help - quotes can be faked and the post deleted. I reccommend sending a message to DefaultTrust, going to the Outbox, hovering over the link of your PM and writing down the ID (number at the end). If you posted a message in the auction section of these forums then your address will be safe as you cannot edit nor delete these messages. |

And, what would happen if you switched to a new address? It would be hard proving that you're the owner of the account, I'm guessing. |

I thought secret questions could not be changed. They are meant to be a passworld you won't be typing everywhere, so the keylogers won't catch, then no need to change if you use a strong secret passworld with maximum length and store it in some vault or something.

That would be why you would post your address in a auction listing early on when you first create your account, or when your account reaches any meaningful status (has positive trust, is a Senior Member or above). It would be easy to prove that you owned that address as you could simply sign a message with your wallet from that address. |
