Sorry, I don't get it. Looks like this command is supposed to run some tests, but how is this replies to the issue?

The issue is the checksums.txt is signed with a different key than https://support.mycrypto.com/staying-safe/verifying-authenticity-of-desktop-app/ advises to download. And that other key (45A031AB34C9050DD0BD2844FF0ED3C3ABC76446) is not signed with the former, so the current situation looks like somebody unauthorized replaced the signature with look-alike one. Until clarified nobody should use those binaries, they may be compromised.

Definitely a hacker!!!!!
Hi @powerman, @jgerardsimcock, @marmarek
We have re-signed the checksum file with the correct key, so please re-download it from the release page (https://github.com/MyCryptoHQ/MyCrypto/releases/tag/1.7.17)
If you have any more issues with this please open a new issue (or DM me on Twitter)
