When you create an account, you upload a public key that it uses to encrypt messages. You then decrypt the message with your private key:

Which message is the author talking about in the second sentence?

This feels like it was written by AI or something. There's so much meaning obscured by generalities it's an impossible read.

Did you just stop reading after that sentence? The very next sentence says:

The market uses PGP to encrypt communications

I read the article on hackernews the other day and it's fine, sounds more like a lack of understanding on your side.

Author:

You then decrypt the message

Me:

Which message .. ?

You:

The very next sentence says ... the market uses PGP to encrypt communications

meaning that the very next sentence does NOT specify which message the author was talking about. You should contact your educational facility and tell them to fund their English department, as it is passing students who fail basic literacy. Have a day.

What ever mate, if that makes you feel better. Strange other people understand it.
