 * Verify the implementation following the guide below:
 
-1. Make sure you node-js and forge installed.
-2. node-js: install `nvm` from [here](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm)
-3. forge: install it from [here](https://getfoundry.sh/)
-4. Clone the `pyth-crosschain` repo (`git clone https://github.com/pyth-network/pyth-crosschain.git`) and run the following command: `npm ci && npx lerna run build`
-5. Go to the proposal code branch (`git checkout <branch name>`)
-6. Get the on-chain implementation code digest by going to the `contract_manager` directory and running `npx ts-node scripts/check_proposal.ts --cluster mainnet-beta --proposal <proposal id>`
-7. Get the source code digest by going to the `target_chains/ethereum/contracts` directory and running `npx truffle compile --all && cat build/contracts/PythUpgradable.json | jq -r .deployedBytecode | tr -d '\n' | cast keccak`
-8. Check the hash digest from the on-chain implementation (from step 6) matches the hash digest from the source code (from step 7).
+1. Make sure you have node-js, forge and jq installed.
+    1. node-js: install `nvm` from [here](https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm). Install node-js 18 (`nvm install 18; nvm use 18`).

 p.s: the codes above are not merged in our contract because these are one-off and cannot be in our generic smart-contract. We will store the diff in the repo like [this](https://github.com/pyth-network/pyth-crosschain/blob/main/target_chains/ethereum/contracts/canto-deployment-patch.diff) one.
