Statement of GPG Key Transition

To replace my GnuPG key, I have set up a new Signify key, and will be transitioning away from my GnuPG key.

The GnuPG key will continue to be valid until 2022-02-01 for the purpose of verifying this transition statement. Please do not use it send me encrypted emails anymore.

This message is signed by both keys to certify the transition.

The old GnuPG key's primary key fingerprint was:
BF49E81C1D888979B6506B225B4FE8CA89C066C0

The new Signify key is:
RWTJ8JZMFWhB2Ya9GyXbmOQKSxd/x57IV/oNo6/nl344CR1aqf/OgPXf

If you have my old GnuPG key, you can verify this transition statement with:
gpg2 --verify [gpg-signify-transition-statement.txt.asc](/static/gpg-signify-transition-statement.txt.asc)

You can verify the new Signify key with:
signify -V -e -p key.pub -m [gpg-signify-transition-statement.txt.sig](/static/gpg-signify-transition-statement.txt.sig)

Thank you, and sorry for the inconvenience.
