New feature: sign in with your Bitcoin address

Public key cryptography used in Bitcoin enables anybody to sign in to Anonymous Ads without registration.

Just enter your bitcoin address, use it to sign our message, paste the signature and click "Sign In" button.

Signed in users can see the list of their campaigns and ad units and edit some of their properties.

E. g. publishers can edit withdrawal parameters of their ad units.
We accept Bitcoin-QT - compatible signatures (supported by MultiBit, Electrum,  Blockchain.info and probably other wallets as well).
