Replying to Avatar WalletScrutiny

From the start we wanted to look into desktop wallets but it's really hard. For example for Electrum there is 23 different ways of getting the binary and those are probably +20 different binaries.

* We do not have the resources to check them all with every release.

* We have no idea how to communicate our findings to the user.

How about a table for the binaries, then a tick box if it's been self-certified by the developer, and a tick-box if we checked it ourselves, a tick-box for volunteers?

The philosophy with WalletScrutiny always was to monitor what people actually are installing and with App- and Play Store that was straight forward. A verdict was relevant for all users but with 23 verdicts associated with the same brand, it's just too complex for a user to understand even if we had the man power to assign the 23 verdicts.
