I'm new to this Ethereum community and I've been reading about signatures processes in Ethereum and smart contracts processes and always end up finding a general use-case where someone signs a "hello world" message with a private key and someone can verify who did it using its public key. However, I'm having trouble finding a proper real case scenario for this signatures process. Is there anyone who can enlighten me and show me a real use case where I can make use of these signatures?

2So how exactly does the title of this question represent anything of what is actually being asked in it??? – goodvibration Feb 08 '20 at 11:09

I apologize, I approved the edit. I was reading other threads and mistitled apparently – smartrsa Feb 08 '20 at 11:12

"real case scenario for this signatures process"? To the best of my knowledge, every transaction made on the Ethereum block-chain such a real case scenario. – goodvibration Feb 08 '20 at 11:16

The question as stated is too open and unrelated to ethereum. Signatures are used in many cases, like voting, identity verification, pseudo random number generation. – Ismael Feb 08 '20 at 20:22

I think possibly the question is "What are signatures, what do they prove and how do they work?" – Rob Hitchens Feb 08 '20 at 20:25
