Introduction
To give an easier way to install the software, we provide precompiled binaries for different platforms.
The following platforms are currently supported during our releases:
- Windows
- Linux
- MacOS
Precompiled binaries are the compiled version of the source code by a third party (in this, case, the developers) which is ready to run on your system.
It is a convenient way to install the software without the need to compile it from source code, but needs to trust the source of the binaries.
Running precompiled binaries from untrusted party can be a security risk.
Download
For each new version release, we provide a zip for the mentioned platforms containing the daemon, wallet and miner binaries along checksums, documentation and license files.
To download the latest version available, please visit the Releases page .
We recommended building our software from source code directly, to be up-to-date but also to prevent having to trust a third party which could be a vector of attacks.
Verification
Once you’ve downloaded the zip file it is recommended to verify the correct checksums of these binaries.
On Linux, you can achieve this by using the sha256sum and compare it to the provided checksums:
sha256sum <your_file>Unsupported platform
If you don’t see the precompiled binaries for your platform, it is required to build from source code.
A comprehensive guide to build from source code is available here.
