New BlackBank Feature: PGP Ownership Verification

Howdy,

As PGP is a great way to verify vendors and buyers, BlackBank now requires PGP public key ownership to be verified. This is an important step to ensure other people do not steal or use your PGP public key in their profile as an attempt to impersonate you.

There will be a feature rolling out shortly to allow for searching vendors by PGP public key as well, but it will only search for verified PGP public keys. If you registered before the date of this message, please verify your PGP code by following the below instructions:

  1. Edit your PGP code
  2. Save your PGP code (you don't have to change it)
  3. Answer the challenge question by decrypting the message and entering the code in the response box

All members who register after the date of this message will not have to worry, as you will be asked to verify the ownership of your PGP public key when you first add it to your profile.

Cheers,
MDParity

This market sounds nice but how many trusted vendors are there or is it still in beta?

Vendors are growing, but there will be upcoming changes that I hope will bring in the more reputable veteran vendors.

Cheers.
