Phrasings like \"weird hemming and hawing\" suggest that\nwe don't know/don't care about some insight you have, which is not true.\nThis is why your posts are FUD.\n\nFor example, in your linked post I looked at every single instance of the\ncharacter 'k' and *not one of them* defined the value 'k' from which 'R'\nis derived in the signing procedure.\n\n\nOf course there is no possible value, individual signers cannot learn 'R'\nat signing time without interaction, and your whole scheme is broken. Given\nthe number of times you've been told this, I find it hard to believe that\nthis was an honest mistake.\n\n\n\nAndrew\n\n\n\n-- \nAndrew Poelstra\nResearch Director, Mathematics Department, Blockstream\nEmail: apoelstra at wpsoftware.net\nWeb:   https://www.wpsoftware.net/andrew\n\n\"Make it stop, my love; we were wrong to try\n Never saw what we could unravel in traveling light\n Nor how the trip debrides like a stack of slides\n All we saw was that time is taller than space is wide\"\n       --Joanna Newsom\n\n-------------- next part --------------\nA non-text attachment was scrubbed...\nName: signature.asc\nType: application/pgp-signature\nSize: 455 bytes\nDesc: not available\nURL: \u003chttp://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20180905/8174ffbf/attachment.sig\u003e"}
