It means to upload the same PGP key that you used in other markets in your Abacus profile, or to sign the message using that PGP key, so they can verify your profile and waive your bond if applies.

If you have more questions, continue communicating in the ticket.

I believe what he is saying is to copy just the code itself, and not any of the empty spaces above or below it. Either that or is he is high on his own supply, but I'm pretty sure it's the first option.

Copy the code and do what with it? They gave a random string of numbers saying to sign my message with it. How do I sign my pgp code with a random string of numbers? That doesn't make any sense and I cannot do that, so clearly I am misunderstanding what they are asking of me. Horrendously confused.

Do you have Kleopatra? If so, copy that code, and paste it into the notepad in there. Then go to the recipients tab and select to sign the message using your key. Do not encrypt it, just sign it. Then, take that new signed message and paste it back in to the site

Yes, but I see no option to just sign. All options I have are both "sign/encrypt"

Yes, so in the recipients section, untick the "Encrypt for me", and the "Encrypt for others" option, and the button will change from sign/encrypt notepad, to just sign notepad

Woah, never knew that. Thank you very very very much. I am hoping that is what they needed. That sounds right and makes sense!

Cool, hopefully that works. Make sure they don't want you to decrypt a message though, because that is a different thing, and you will need to decrypt a message and copy that decrypted code in to the site, basically the reverse of what you're doing now. Also your other comment is pending moderation so i can't see what it says yet, because it will include a word that means a moderator will have to review it to stop phishing

Do you have their key saved and imported?

If so, Decrypt the message and paste the string of numbers from this part of the message
