To publish the uri `lbry://@FleischerSuperman/terroronthemidway`, Reilly must sign the SHA256 of the the combined claim address, claim value, and certificate claim id.
He starts by generating an address for the new name claim:

    bEGGwBFf39ek6ASJV5YwiUPvDqtpgczCVZ

His claim for the certificate at the uri `lbry://@FleischerSuperman` has a `claim_id` of

    2996b9a087c18456402b57cba6085b2a8fcc136d

It contains a der-encoded SECP256k1 public key

    {

            "keyType": "SECP256k1",
            "publicKey": "3056301006072a8648ce3d020106052b8104000a03420004180488ffcb3d1825af538b0b952f0eba6933faa6d8229609ac0aeadfdbcf49

### Signing the claim in detail

Reilly decodes and combines the claim address, the serialized claim value, and the claim id of
 the certificate claim. As hex, the combined value is:

    656f2f6d70342996b9a087c18456402b57cba6085b2a8fcc136d

Then he takes the sha256 of the combined string, giving:

    dea44974ace1893f304cae4073af06a7a6cbb209f97cf8ad5f322216f044304e

He signs (RFC 6979) this hash using the private key to the previously shown certificate, giving the signature:

    bf82d53143155bb0cac1fd3d917c000322244b5ad17e7865124db2ed33812ea66c9b0c3f390a65a9e2d452e315e91ae695642847d88e90348ef3c1fa283a36a8

Now he add this signature to the claim:

    {
        "claimType": "streamType",
        "publisherSignature": {
            "certificateId": "2996b9a087c18456402b57cba6085b2a8fcc136d",
