Welcome to the exercises section. Before we start, here is what you wanna do.
1. Create a New Key Pair with the following information
2. Have your Fingerprint published on the online server. It's gonna help me and other members to access your public key for encrypted communication.

i.e:Email:
Code:
Name: ex-mdayonliner
Email:
We don't actually want to use our real name and email address for these exercises. The username part with the prefix ex- will help me and others to identify that we are communicating with you.Email:
2. Have your Fingerprint published on the online server. It's gonna help me and other members to access your public key for encrypted communication.

would be great is there youtube video ;)
PGP is important if you guys still confuse with PGP you can also sign message on bitcoin as well
I see on Youtube there are already several tutorials on how to use PGP encryption messages, e.g .:PGP is important if you guys still confuse with PGP you can also sign message on bitcoin as well
- How To Use PGP Encryption | gpg4win Kleopatra Tutorial
- Signing with OpenPGP using Kleopatra
- How to encrypt message with PGP using Kleopatra | Gpg4win ?
So depending on the person's habits, it is more comfortable to learn through written media or videos.

Is there a way to use a hardware wallet with this program?
As far as I know, most hardware wallets don't have the feature to create encrypted messages using PGP.But there is one device, namely Keyxentic KX 906, which was able to secure email signing and encryption with S/MIME and PGP protocol.
At the moment, I don't know how the reputation and reviews from its users are. -Do With Your Own Risk-

I think it would be much more interesting to display the results of what you learned from this thread, such as sending an encrypted message to the OP, creating a PGP Sign message, or verifying the PGP signature. So it's not just saying thank you for appreciating it. 
December 21, 2020, 05:40:46 AM
I am working on updating the topic. The update has been done until the following block.

Can you also add your Public key? So that I can try to verify your PGP signature.-snip-

Im sure i made every thing as the books said but im still getting this error here and i dont know where is the source of it
any one can help with this ? :-\
Can you explain in more detail about the “Not found” message? Which stage of the OP tutorial did you have trouble? Im sure i made every thing as the books said but im still getting this error here and i dont know where is the source of it

December 07, 2020, 03:02:36 PM
Yes, I solved it 
Good!This interest me, what was you missing in the first place?
I don't think I'll be comfortable using PGP until I feel like I know what I'm doing. Just following a tutorial isn't enough to be confident I won't mess it up.
December 07, 2020, 05:03:06 AM
Maybe a small update in the op about errors from https://sks-keyservers.net and alternative servers to use wouldn't be a bad idea.
I will absolutely do that. I was not active on the forum since I left last year so I had no idea that this topic still had demand. Now since I am back I will start looking at the topics I left and will start updating them. Still I am trying to find the habit I had before, to be online most of the time of the day and have things to say in almost all the topics

A bit surprise to see the discussion still going on. Thank you Husna QA to keep posting on behalf of me when I was not active in the forum.
@LoyceV, I am not clear if you were able to solve your problem yet, this did not give me a clear idea of your struggling.
3. Copy the message and from the try verify it.
Only three times you are interacting with the software. This is not too hard

@Myfe: You're confusing PGP signatures and Bitcoin signed messages.
November 21, 2020, 02:58:10 PM
Is it possible to create a PGP Signature from any wallet address?
I appreciate the Kleopatra tutorial, but I don't use Kloepatra and I shouldn't have to use a new wallet simply to sign my wallet address...right?
Thanks.

Recently I tried Kleopatra version 3.0.1 on Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS and managed to verify the message.
Maybe the following methods worked for you too:
- Copy the Public Key into Clipboard.
- At Kleopatra, click the Clipboard button, select Certificate Import.
Maybe the following methods worked for you too:
- Copy the Public Key into Clipboard.
- At Kleopatra, click the Clipboard button, select Certificate Import.
But wait, if I certify for everyone instead of just myself, it works!
I'm amazed how complicated verifying a PGP message is, compared to how easy it is to verify a Bitcoin signed message.
November 20, 2020, 11:25:06 AM
I don't have that option (in Kleopatra, running Linux) under the Tools menu, but it works from the system tray. I have the Certificate imported under "Other Certificates". -snip-

- Click the Decrypt/Verify button and select the * .asc file.
- Here are the results:

I did this also from the system tray, but get this:

I have another message I want to verify (for a potential scam accusation thread), and that one I can't share.

Stumbling myself a fair share on my local board with PGP (no need to see PGP ¿Puedes enviar mensajes cifrados?), so exploring the PGP Newbie avenues myself.
Doing so, I’ve encountered the following issue:
- I’ve created a new PGP pair, and published my PGP public key (using Kleopatra).
- @FullNode published a message on a post, using my PGP public key to create his (not sure though which software he used).
- When I try to decrypt the message, I get:
Pressing "diagnostics" shows:
The "force cypher" button on Kleopatra does nothing.
The quote’s above are in Spanglish, but the basic issue that does not allow for the message to be decrypted, seems to be that my cypher default algorithm on Kleopatra is "AES", while @ FullNode encrypted the message using "CAST5".
I would have expected the PGP tools to be able to figure it out on their own, but it seems not, which is also something to ponder (that or my Newbie PGP status). I tries changing from AES to CAST5 on Kleopatra’s configuration, but still got nowhere (when I closed/reopened Kleopatra, it went back to AES anyway).
Anyone know how frequent these cypher algorithm clashes occur, and whether it is tool dependent and/or resoluble using Kleopatra on the message decoding side ?

MIT PGP Public Key Server brief guide:Quote from: https://pgp.mit.edu/extracthelp.html
Extracting a key
Currently, I am personally more comfortable using http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/ instead of https://pgp.mit.edu/ - Type the text you want to search for in the ``Search String'' box. If you want to look up a key by its hexadecimal KeyID, you have to prefix the ID with 0x
- Select either the ``Index'' or ``Verbose Index'' check box. The ``Verbose'' option will display signatures on keys.
- Press the ``Do the search!'' button.
- The server will return a list of keys matching the search text. The page will have links for every KeyID, and every bracket-delimited identifier (i.e. < [email protected]>). Clicking on the hypertext link will display an ASCII-armored version of the public key.

It is because the SKS PGP Keyserver is being abandoned due to peoples abuse of known public keys on the server. I stumbled on this article when I tried looking for other keyserver lookup as alternative as I was also following the same tutorial. But still, even without uploading it to a keyserver, you can still verify the pgp signature of an application and encrypt/ decrypt a message.Server indicated a failure gpg: keyserver send failed: Server indicated a failure

The Death of SKS PGP Keyservers, and How First Look Media is Handling It
The SKS keyserver network is dying. This has been a long time coming. The nail in SKS’s coffin came in late June when someone abused important public keys that people rely on.

Unfortunetly, there is no other guides show you how to interact with pgp signatures here in bitcointalk. I also remember how i followed this guide and face the same error but i didn't look further. Better to ask for opinions directly from users community .Server indicated a failure gpg: keyserver send failed: Server indicated a failure

I don't know why people like to abuse things like this. Indeed i was able to encrypt a message and @OgNasty was about to decrypt it.

The program stores your keyrings here: C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\gnupg
So even if you uninstall the software your keys should remain in that folder. That is why you see them the 2nd time you install Kleopatra on your device.

You do not understand me. Sorry for my English. When I install the program a second time, it automatically shows me my certificate (name and email).
I entered the installed program only:
The program does not ask me to enter anything when you first enter.
Before removing the program, I should to delete the certificate manually?

Tell me please. When I delete the Kleopatra and install it again, my certificate immediately appears in it. Where is it stored on the computer, if I did not import it into my computer?

Could someone explain what is the purpose or advantages about to create or make a PGP?
Mostly privacy. You don't want the NSA reading your emails, do you?Quote
PGP is useful for two things: 1. Privacy and Security, and 2. Authenticity. By privacy, I mean that you can prevent people from seeing things. For example, you can encrypt an email to someone, or encrypt a file with a list of passwords. By Authenticity, I mean that you can ensure a message was sent/written by the person you think it was, and that it wasn't modified by a third party. Of course, these two can be combined. I'll discuss these further.

Hello hugeblack,
Will do mate. I am still working on this tutorial. After posting the topic I crushed last night. I just woke up now and noticed I became a Full Member. It's exciting and I am going to celebrate the happiness. I will add few more alternative ways for PGP using https://keybase.io and others soon.
Appreciate your feedback and thanks for the compliment. It took me long time to find a good banner for the top

Many people do not have any clue about PGP encryption/decryption. It was same for me however I had to learn it the hard way. Explore the topic The BCT PGP/GPG Public Key Database: Stake Your PGP Key Here to understand why you need to know it. If you are an Electrum wallet user then I am pretty sure you have seen a signature link next to the installation file. You also seen a warning notification on the top which talks about a fake copy of Electrum.
Long story short, PGP gives you extensive privacy and you can easily validate the authentic source of your received file/text. In this tutorial we will learn...
# How to create PGP Signed message and signature
# How to verify a PGP Signed message and signature
# How to encrypt a message
# How to decrypt a message
Once you get a good grip of these 4 basics, I believe you will be able to grab the rest without having any further assistance.
Before we start, it's gonna help you if I give you a brief. PGP consist of two Keys...
1. Private key <=== You need it to decrypt a content
1. a) You also need a passphrase, in other words a strong password.
2. Public key <=== You need it to encrypt a content
Think about a very sensitive message you want to email to your friend. You don't want any gov agency or any spy read the message. These people can easily access your email server. To avoid it, ask you friend to give his PGP public key. Once you have it then encrypt the message and email the encrypted message to your friend. Now only your friend can decrypt it because he knows the private key.
Warning: Do not share your private key and passphrase with anyone.
Download and Installation Go to top
You will need Kleopatra desktop application. Click here and download gpg4win-3.1.1.exe (this is the current version, you might find the same or a different version but don't mind, whatever the version they will have on their server, it will be downloaded). Once download done, go ahead and install the application (I assume, you know basics of installing an application). Once installation done, you will be seeing Kleopatra icon on your desktop.

6.3. Click on Upload Public Key To Directory Service... -> wait a little bit -> Click OK
This will upload the Public Key online in the PGP Directory Service
But before that we need to check if the directory domain is still active. In case of inactive domains please follow the following setting.
An error occurred while trying to export OpenPGP certificates.

If you are using Windows OS and Kleopatra as in the tutorial above, go to Settings -> Configure Kleopatra ...
In the OpenPGP Keyserver column (default: hkps: //hkps.pool.sks-keyservers.net), enter the keyserver that is still active/accessible, https://pgp.mit.edu; http://keyserver.ubuntu.com/; or other servers; then click OK.

Don't worry if there is an error. You can do this later after proper configuration.
Click OK and Finish
You should be seeing your newly created PGP user ID
6.3.a. Right click -> Click on Publish on Server
Even after changing the server if you keep getting error then do not worry. You do not need any server for your public key. You can save it in your computer

Welcome to the exercises section. Before we start, here is what you wanna do.
1. Create a New Key Pair with the following information
Code:
Name: ex-
Email:
i.e:Email:
Code:
Name: ex-mdayonliner
Email:
We don't actually want to use our real name and email address for these exercises. The username part with the prefix ex- will help me and others to identify that we are communicating with you.Email:
2. Have your Fingerprint published on the online server. It's gonna help me and other members to access your public key for encrypted communication.
We will have two assignments to practice. I will think of an award later for the successful participants.
Assignment 1: PGP Singed Message and Signature - Coming soon.
Assignment 2: Encrypt and Decrypt Message - Coming soon.
Click here for my Fingerprint on the server.
Code:
81DAEE690159E01E28FF951086FEA0B65C6E1B2C
electrobit: Could someone explain what is the purpose or advantages about to create or make a PGP?
Answer
Please feel free to ask any question in the comment. I will add them in here with the answer. If I do not have the answer then I will try to seek senior members' help or I will find an answer for your question. Make sure the question is related to the topic.
Husna QA: The topic PGP/GPG Signed Message - Public Key in his/her local language was the starter for me to start my learning. I am happy that I was good enough to understand the translation in English. TryNinja: Provided some URLs which cleared my head to understand better. hugeblack: Suggested the idea of adding some example PGP Public Keys. All the members who were leaving their PGP PUBLIC KEYs all around the forum. Seeing these encrypted codes were interesting for me and finally I decided to investigate what was it all about.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Good_Privacy
http://www.pitt.edu/~poole/PGP.htm
This tutorial will be continued with further materials in future
Looking forward to your expertise review and feedback
