This guide is for v1.3.3. I will update this guide as new versions are released.

Step 1: Download and Install the Wallet Client

First, download the SpectreCoin Desktop Wallet client. The client has install packages for Windows (32 & 64) and Mac. You can also find a Linux build with instructions on their GitHub.

Step 2: Sync your Client to the SpectreCoin Network

Next, you’ll want to ensure that your client is fully synced to the SpectreCoin network. The sync process should begin automatically, however in some cases you will need to manually connect your wallet to the network. This is a known bug that will be fixed in the next release.

The icons in the upper-right hand corner of the wallet client will indicate the status of your wallet. Compare the icons below to your wallet’s icons in the upper-right corner to determine if your wallet is syncing properly. You can also hover over the icons in your client to reveal more status information.

If your wallet is syncing properly, you can proceed to Step 3. Otherwise, follow the steps below to manually update your wallet to begin the sync process.

If you have “0 Connections” to the SpectreCoin Network

If you are showing zero connections you will need to manually add a few node addresses to your wallet.
