You can't, it uses an own key scheme not compatible with openpgp. The protocol is described on https://github.com/WhisperSystems/TextSecure/wiki/ProtocolV2, they use ECC with Curve25519 and AES256. Signatures on a key are not possible. Only manual verification of the key fingerprint, or, when ypou meet in person, scanning this number represented in a QR code on screen with the camera, is possibble. > If this catches on, as Wired thinks I use Textsecure quite some time as sms replacement but failed to convinvce anyone else to use it too (wether as sms replacement or stand alone chatapp). -- ir.
