Description
The following fails to verify. The keybase.txt files are present as instructed. Note: my website is using CloudFlare for SSL CDN load balancing reverse proxy service, some older SSL clients (curl, etc.) appear to be incompatible with CloudFlare's SSL certificate due to missing or expired root certificate:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Keybase>keybase prove https risknerd.com
You will be asked to post a file to:

Research direction
Start by reproducing `keybase prove https risknerd.com` and checking the two listed keybase.txt URLs through the CloudFlare proxy. Compare the HTTPS verification behavior with the reported older-client certificate concern; done means identifying whether the failure is caused by CloudFlare or Keybase, with evidence or a documented unresolved cause.
