To the point: I just downloaded from Github  Gnucash-Intel-5.12-1.dmg and verified that it’s an x86_64 architecture and that the minimum macOS version is 10.13:
file /Volumes/Gnucash-5.12-Intel/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
/Volumes/Gnucash-5.12-Intel/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
In Info.plist:
        <key>LSMinimumSystemVersion</key>
        <string>10.13</string>

Are you sure you got the Intel dmg?

Now a couple of list etiquette issues:
1. When you’re replying to a digest email please quote only the single item you’re replying to and change the subject header to match that item’s subject.
2. Create a new email instead of replying when, as in this case, you have a new topic to discuss.
