04:44 < elichai2> instagibbs: I hate when that happens ;)
04:45 < elichai2> gwillen: it's not about trying. Every signature and message practically has at least two corresponding public keys. Some have up to 4(rare)

10:09 < andytoshi> stevenroose: it would surprise me if we didn't expose serialization methods for RecoverableSignature
10:10 < andytoshi> people use these types, judging by the whining we get whenever we try to remove them..

13:11 < gwillen> elichai2: but when verifying you have a signature and an address
13:11 < gwillen> the only thing you need to recover is the pubkey associated with the address
13:11 < gwillen> surely for that you can try all 4
13:12 < gwillen> (I guess the idea is that you can use JUST the signature to recover the address, that's interesting but I assume nobody does it that way, since it's kind of dumb not to specify up front who you want the signature to be from?)
13:15 < elichai2> gwillen: I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say. But since you've said address I'll assume you're talking about bitcoin and say that the public key is always in the message(transaction) anyway
13:20 < gwillen> I am talking about verifying a bitcoin signmessage
13:20 < gwillen> which is done using the verifymessage RPC, whose arguments are "address" "signature" "message"
13:22 < gwillen> (it only now occurs to me that in fact RecoverableSignature is presumably also used for other things, so it would have been non-obvious to you that this was what I had in mind, sorry)
13:23 < gwillen> (also this sort of answers my question -- the fact that recoverable signatures are used for other things is probably why they were used for signed messages, even though in the signed message application you don't really _need_ the extra two bits because you _could_ just try all 4 options.)
