Download Nerbus Wallet

Nerbus Wallet 0.2.1 for Windows x64 and Linux x86_64. It creates NRB receiving addresses and signs transactions on this computer. No wallet daemon and no full blockchain download.

This release has no macOS build. Use the Windows x64 or Linux x86_64 package.

What this wallet does

Nerbus Wallet is a standalone Qt wallet for transparent NRB addresses (P2PKH). Private keys and signatures stay on the computer. Balance, address history, spendable outputs, and broadcast of signed transactions use the public /wallet/v1 interface on the Nerbus block explorer. It does not validate the full chain itself.

  • Receiving addresses can be created offline. A password is optional.
  • Back up again after adding addresses. Older backups do not contain later keys.
  • Mining rewards become spendable in this wallet after 150 confirmations.
  • Shielded transfers, staking, and identity actions are outside this version.

Questions

Where do I download Nerbus Wallet?

Use the Windows ZIP or the Linux tar.gz on this page. Wallet 0.2.1 was published on 17 October 2026. Release notes are on Nerbus Git.

Do I have to download the whole blockchain?

No. This is a light wallet. Addresses and keys stay on this computer, and balances come from explorer.nerbus.com. If the explorer is unavailable, the wallet cannot show a network balance.

How do I start it on Windows?

Extract the whole ZIP into one folder and open nerbus-qt.exe. Do not copy the executable out of that folder. SmartScreen may warn because the build is unsigned. Continue only after the SHA-256 matches.

What does Linux need?

x86_64, glibc 2.35 or newer, and X11 or XWayland. From the extracted directory, run ./nerbus-qt.sh and leave the bundled libraries in place.

Is there a macOS build?

Not in 0.2.1. The published builds are Windows x64 and Linux x86_64 only.

Is a password required?

A new wallet is stored without a password. Encryption can be turned on under Wallet & backup. A password protects the file; it cannot recover a lost key. Back up again after every new address.

When can I spend mining rewards?

Coinbase rewards can be spent from this wallet after 150 confirmations. Create a receiving address here, then use it at the Nerbus pool. Pool payouts are spendable only after the reward matures.

How is this different from a full node?

This package does not include nerbusd. To download and validate the chain over the peer network, install Nerbus Core separately. For addresses and payments, the Qt wallet on this page is the build to use.
