GPG and #bitcoin-otc tutoringPGP and GPG can be very confusing for those just starting out. I provide tutoring services using Skype screenshare (optional). We can cover everything even remotely related:
- Downloading and installing GPG
- Creating a keypair
- importing and exporting public keys
- signing and encrypting files
- verifying signatures
- getting started with #bitcoin-otc
- moving your keyring around
- gpg related command-line tricks
- how pgp works, from a basic overview to why primes are so cool
To finish it off, we'll rate each other on #bitcoin-otc, to allow you to "bootstrap" your ratings. (Few people trade with new users, and you can't rate someone without having been rated yourself.)
I have done this several times now (some sessions were private) on multiple operating systems including various Linux flavors, Mac, and Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8. In one hour you can go from not knowing what GPG stands for to being ready to trade on #bitcoin-otc and able to sign, encrypt, decrypt, verify signatures, and use keyservers from multiple computers.
Pricing:0.1 BTC / hour
One hour is sufficient for general use, but two hours will allow us to go very in-depth.
New: They can also include a Bitmessage overview.
MPOE-PR is sponsoring one free hour per person. Anonymous (unpublished) sessions are possible but are not free, and they do not end in a #bitcoin-otc rating.
Due to an influx of demand, I'm changing the scheduling process. If you wish to have a session at one of the times below, post it in this thread, and PM me your Skype name.
All times are EST. First come first served.
