Why do i need to verify my bitcoin wallet address to access some areas in my account?
By "signing a message" we are able to verify that you are the actual owner of the bitcoin wallet address which you are currently signed in with. Certain areas in your account that display sensitive data are required to have a verified address before being made accessible.
NOTE: Each bitcoin address needs to have a unique e-mail address in order to be verified. You cannot verify multiple addresses with the same e-mail account.

How do i verify my bitcoin wallet address?
This varies depending on the type of wallet from where you have generated your bitcoin address. You need to locate the Sign Message link within your desired wallet. Once located, follow the instructions provided on that page to submit a form and generate a signature. These usually consist of the following: 1.) Your current password, 2.) Message to sign (available to copy/paste on the verify page), 3.) Your bitcoin address.
Once you have entered these, click on sign message and a string of characters will be displayed as a signature. Copy this signature and paste it into the form on bitvisits.com along with your e-mail address and proceed to verify.
