The traditional way that nerds verify that the files they get were created by the same people they dealt with in the past, is with PGP signatures.
For every file that is provided, the person who provided it also makes available their digital signature for that file.

You can get our PGP keys from the official ElectrumSV git repository, and check the signatures we provide in the download folder on this web site if you really want to.The traditional way that nerds verify that the files they get are the same files that everyone else is getting, is with file hashes or checksums.

In the real world, most people are too lazy to check these. But you should learn to do it for your own sake, until ElectrumSV can download and validate updates for you.
You can get the SHA256 hashes for the files we make available to download, from the official ElectrumSV git repository.
