- https://env.vechain.org and https://github.com/vechain/
- https://github.com/vechain/thor-sync.electron
- Compare version, checksum, and metadata from both sources
- Download latest github release AppImage binary
- Compute SHA512 checksum of downloaded binary
- encodes SHA522 output as base64 to match mechanism used by VeChain
- Verify calculated checksum against published (webpage and github) checksums
- On validation success, install AppImage to ~/Desktop
