Downloads

Prebuilt binaries are published on GitHub releases. The Linux binaries link against GLIBC_2.39, so they need glibc 2.39 or newer, which means Ubuntu 24.04 or later.

To build from source instead, see build the binaries.

Node 4.0.3

Release tag v4.0.3, or the latest release and all releases.

Platform	Asset	Unpacks to
Linux x86-64	epic-4.0.3-linux-amd64.tar.gz	epic-4.0.3-linux-amd64/
macOS Apple silicon	MacOS-aarch64-4.0.3.zip	MacOS-aarch64-4.0.3/
Windows x86-64	Windows-v4.0.3.zip	epic.exe, no wrapping directory

macOS Intel and Linux ARM need a source build.

Wallet 4.0.0

Release tag v4.0.0, or the latest release and all releases.

Platform	Asset	Unpacks to
Linux x86-64	epic-wallet-4.0.zip	epic-wallet, no wrapping directory
Windows x86-64	epic-wallet.exe	the executable itself, not an archive

The archive is named for the 4.0 line rather than the full 4.0.0 tag, and holds a Linux x86-64 ELF binary.

Download and verify

Each asset publishes a checksum file beside it, named for the asset with its extension replaced by -sha256sum.txt: epic-4.0.3-linux-amd64-sha256sum.txt for the Linux node tarball, epic-wallet-4.0-sha256sum.txt for the wallet archive.

note

Release binaries are built without --features with-tor, so they ship no Tor support. Set use_tor_listener = false in epic-wallet.toml, or build from source with the feature.
