Hi there,

Downloaded Bisq2 and got message can’t be opened as Apple cannot check it for malicious software. This software needs to be updated. Contact developer for more info.

Am I missing something here or doing it wrong or a genuine issue with the download file?

Any insights be much appreciated.

thanks.
