FN-Server v0.4.0

New

  • 🔍 Block explorer and transaction analyzer. It asks only your own node, and nothing you look at leaves your Mac.
    • Search any height, block hash, txid, address, raw transaction or PSBT.
    • Every block is read whole: what each transaction is doing, embedded data by protocol, address types, coin days destroyed and a fee-rate block map.
    • Each transaction shows its flow, a privacy grade with reasons, likely change and decoded data. It can also find where an output was spent without an index.
    • Paste a raw transaction or PSBT to check it before broadcast: whether your node would accept it, and what a PSBT still needs. Nothing is broadcast.
    • See BlockExplorer.md.
  • 🧙 Setup Assistant. It checks your Mac, lets you choose Bitcoin Core or Knots and a network, then installs, verifies and starts it and connects your wallets. Open it any time from the app menu or the wand button.
  • ⚡ Nostr Connect, rebuilt. Fully Noded's RPC calls travel end-to-end encrypted (NIP-44) through a nostr relay, so it connects in about a second.
    • Use the built-in relay at home or over a VPN, with optional wss:// and a pinned certificate on macOS 15+, or a public relay from anywhere.
    • Each paired device has its own key and can be removed.
  • ⚡ Core Lightning is back, for Plasma. It installs with Homebrew, runs next to your node and pairs with Plasma by QR over Nostr Connect. Read-only pairings can't spend, and CLNRest wallets can connect over Tor.

Improved

  • A redesigned interface throughout.
  • Better node monitoring: running state (even when RPC can't answer), sync progress with time left, peers, mempool, uptime and the debug.log tail. A node started from the menu bar or Terminal is picked up too.
  • Lighter on resources: the explorer's mempool view refreshes once a minute.

Fixed

  • Tor status not showing while Tor tries another way to connect.
  • Tor and Core Lightning fixes.

Requirements

macOS 14 or later. Silent payment scanning needs Bitcoin Core 25 or later.

Verify before you install

The app is signed with Developer ID and notarized by Apple. To check the download is ours:

curl -O https://fullynoded.app/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/fullynoded-signing-key.asc
gpg --import fullynoded-signing-key.asc
gpg --verify SHA256SUMS.asc SHA256SUMS
shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS

You should see Good signature from "Fully Noded" with primary key fingerprint 9E3F 8A38 C100 8D95 FEB9 1D08 0BF9 9EAD 77F9 FFAA, and FullyNoded-Server-v0.4.0.dmg: OK. gpg's "not certified with a trusted signature" warning is normal. If either doesn't match, don't install.
