Verify a signed message
Check that a message really was signed by the owner of a Garlicoin address. Handy for giveaways and trades: ask the other person to sign a message, then check it here before you send.
Check a signature
How to sign a message
- In Garlicoin Core, open File → Sign message.
- Pick one of your addresses that starts with G, type the message and press Sign Message.
- Send the address, the message and the signature to whoever asked.
Garlicoin Core 0.18 can only sign with G addresses. Signatures from wallets that sign with M or grlc1 addresses (the BIP137 style) can be checked here too.
Tips
- The message must match exactly: every space, capital and line break counts.
- Ask for something only they could write now, like your username and today's date, so an old signature can't be reused.
- Everything is checked in your browser.
