Beta Downloads
Warning
The downloads on this page are not yet ready for general-purpose production use. We’d love to hear what works and what doesn’t (that’s why they’re posted here), but don’t use them in any situation where failure could result in consequences that you’re unwilling to accept. For example, don’t use them with wallets that contain coins or names that you aren’t willing to sacrifice to science.
The more people test these downloads, the faster they’ll be ready for release. However, there are no guarantees of when, or if, these downloads will be released in final form.
As usual, it is a good idea to verify the hashes and signatures of these downloads (especially the ones not hosted on namecoin.org). The more people reproduced the hashes, the better. If you’re paranoid, run them inside an isolated virtual machine.
Namecoin Core Betas
High Priority: Name Management GUI (PR #67)
This adds a “Manage Names” tab to the GUI interface (similar to what’s in Namecoin 0.3.80). You can use it to register, track, update, and renew Namecoin names. Testers should focus on different ways of creating and managing names, restarting the application mid-update/create/renew, and the details involved in displaying names and name transactions.

Fixed issues:
- Tests were failing.
- Wallet unlock wasn’t triggered on
name_firstupdate. - iCCP errors were appearing.

Lightweight SPV BitcoinJ Name Lookup Client
This is a drop-in replacement for Namecoin Core’s name lookup functionality (e.g. for browsing .bit domains with ncdns), which synchronizes faster and uses less storage, but trusts Namecoin miners more than Namecoin Core does.
You need to have Java installed:
- If you’re using GNU/Linux, use your package manager.
- If you’re using Windows, download it from the Oracle website. Make sure you right-click the
.exeinstaller, clickProperties, and clickDigital Signatures. It should be signed byOracle America, Inc.If it is not, do not install it. - We’re not sure about OS X. If anyone can contribute instructions for OS X, let us know.
