Description
I am trying to send an exploding message, formed of.. oh well, just a RSA private key but I am getting a weird error (see the screenshot please):
How to reproduce:
1. Copy the content of a SSH RSA private key to the clipboard
2. Launch Keybase and select your recipient
3. Set the message to explode after 5 minutes
4. Paste the clipboard content as the message
5. Hit enter or the send button
Keybase for Mac: Version 3.0.0-20190205183613+6394d03e6c (3.0.0-20190205183613+6394d03e6c)

Research direction
Start with the five-step reproduction case and the attached screenshot, using the reported Keybase for Mac version as context. Confirm whether pasting the RSA private-key content into a five-minute exploding message produces the reported error; the issue is done when that message can be sent without it.
