New to Bitcoin here, attempting to setup a node. I am following the instructions and have downloaded the files. I want to verify the release signatures before installing. First I did:
someone@somewhere:~/Downloads$ gpg --recv-keys 01EA5486DE18A882D4C2684590C8019E36C2E964
gpg: key 90C8019E36C2E964: public key "Wladimir J. van der Laan (Bitcoin Core binary release signing key) <[email protected]>" imported
gpg: Total number processed: 1
gpg: imported: 1
which seems to have gone okay. After this, I want to verify the signed SHA256SUMS.asc file that I downloaded before, but I get:
someone@somewhere:~/Downloads$ gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc
gpg: no signed data
gpg: can't hash datafile: No data
What am I doing wrong?
