In Bitcoin's((("digital signatures", "creating"))) use of digital signature algorithms, the "message" being

==== Verifying the Signature
The signature verification algorithm takes the message (a hash of parts of the transaction and related data), the signer's public key and the signature, and returns ++TRUE++ if the signature is valid for this message and public key.
