As a little proof of concept i converted my sub signing key to
a private Bitcoin WIF key and send you some Satoshi. :-)
Here you can see that i did it:
https://blockchain.info/address/12rY4qgjXbL3h8gCSaJUJMJ9g9TaPtypC4
People who want to check if it was really me, who did the transaction,
can do the following:
Step 1 : Download my public key from key servers.
Step 2 : Do a gpg -k --with-colons --with-key-data "Stefan Claas"
Step 3 : When GnuPG list my pub key data look for: sub:u:256:19:
and copy the data string after pkd:1:515:
Step 4: Visit http://gobittest.appspot.com/Address
and paste in step1 the copied data from my pub key and
press send. In field 9 you can see the Bitcoin address of my
sub signing key.
People can omit steps 2 - 3 and use Niibe's script. I however was
not able to use the script, because it gave me no output... :-(
The Bitcoin address of my public sub signing key matches the
address as show in the transaction. :-)
Best regards
Stefan
