App Store/MacOS cannot verify app #172

Similar to issue #109 , Apple Store/MacOS cannot verify the app.

This forces new user to go to their Settings - Privacy - then "Open Anyway"

I have had experiences with new users who literally stop all interest in Freewallet and Counterparty after seeing this.

This is due to the Apple advertising tactic of "all Mac's don't get virus's" and the users truly believe that a non verified App from the Mac Store = being comprimised.

It has been mentioned this message shows just because the annual $99/year certification for Freewallet code has not been paid to Apple.

Any way to get this figured out along with the Certification for Windows as in #109?

will work to get next release signed.

Here are some notes on the process.

Thank you, this would up the user experience and trust from a common user by a significant amount.

Hi I also came across this problem.

TLDR, you can CTRL Click to open the wallet, I also used Ctrl click to copy the wallet and paste it for a fix, but still need to ctrl click to open it.

Hope that helps people.
