Download the installer

Notes

  • Because this is a new file, you’ll see Windows warnings. Click More info Run anyway. If someone wants to donate $700 we can remove the warning by buying a year-long signing certificate. Otherwise it goes away by itself after a few thousand installs.
  • Syncing takes several hours the first time. Two progress bars keep you posted.

Why run a node?

Stronger network

Institutional-ready
