CLI twitter verify text is incorrect #2125

Open brianjwagner opened 8 years ago

To verify my twitter account, I tried the CLI, but it kept telling me that it was not found. The text that was supposed to be copied from the terminal to twitter is different than the text when verifying in the browser.

The browser text was successful, the CLI text was not.

It is expected behaviour that the text is different. As you can see in the complete proof the current time (ctime) is part of the proof. And with different times in the proof the signature of it changes as well. That's why you get different outputs.

According to your sigchain your first attempt to proof twitter (tweet) succeeded. It is probably your second attempt which couldn't be found. But I don't find a tweet for it as well...
