- StavrosK 10y agoWhy would you be so obvious as to misspell "signature", rather than replace one of the letters with an identical-looking high-Unicode alternative?
- seren 10y agoIf this is a honest mistake, at the very least, it shows some lack of professionalism or proof reading. And it should not be the code that have been used, because it should not work. Kinda weird when you are supposed to give step by step instructions.
- scott_s 10y agoBecause you didn't know such things existed? I'm inclined to think this whole thing is a con, but I'm unsure if bash variable is a part of it, or just a mistake. But if it is a con, then we can't assume the person perpetrating it has the same level of technical mastery as we do.
- StavrosK 10y agoGiven how easy it would be to prove that it's not a con, I'm surprised how anyone is buying any of this, really. All Wright has to do is sign today's headlines with the genesis key and publish the signature, and that's it. No other speculation or "convincing of a core developer" needed.
