v0.6.0

Binaries

This release has binaries. Download an archive for your platform, extract, and run. For now, they are still command-line applications that you need to run from the terminal, but at least there should be no problems with python and pip installation.

There are binaries for windows, mac os, linux and arm linux (aarch64, like raspberry pi, pine64 etc).

specterd is a standard specter server that talks to your Bitcoin Core node. If you are running specter on a remote machine and want to connect hardware wallets to your laptop, use hwibridge binary - it will give remote specter access to your hardware wallets. Read more here
