Signing a message is currently quite complicated in Specter and only available for USB-based singlesig-wallets. Here is a short description:
- Got to your wallet->Addresses and click on the address you want to sign your message with. In this example the address is
bcrt1qxak08ykhf7r4js9yncysy5p05xp0fwxhamewc8 - Check the derivation path at the very bottom marked in yellow. In this example it's
/84'/1'/0'/0/2
- Go to the device and click on
sign message on device. Enter the derivation path by converting the'into h and add amand enter your message
- After signing on the device, you get your signature.
- In this example the message is "secret message" and the signature is:
Hy/Uvm4qvI31BxiJDucAJ0ZHjfEl9gG7GgXG2eGvkUn7cNbNhs4AgUi7g+bVIuqvBtpEa38WhwDkkbCgnZe7mRI= - To verify the message, make sure that the service which is doing the verification is able to verify messages with segwit-addresses. https://www.verifybitcoinmessage.com/ is one which can do that. This is only an example and not an endorsement of that service! Watch out, it's your privacy!
- Enter the adddress, the message and the signature in there and you get a valid signature.
