As I mentioned in #98, at this time you cannot verify a message that is not on the main bitcoin network.
This is due to the address that is being derived from the recovered public key is by default an address with the Bitcoin version.
This pull request resolves this issue by making less assumptions about the
address
input parameter, letting it be aString

or even byte array (that is, consistent with thenew Address
constructor); and then derives the address from the version of the input address instead of defaulting.
