Espers Wallet

Updated January 23, 2021

Download your wallet from:
https://espers.io/wallet.html

Windows

For WINDOWS 10 just run this script (pass to unzip: 123) to automate the process.

The Script will:
1 — Download the latest Snapshot and latest Wallet Release.
2 — Backup of your Espers data folder .
3 — Unpack the Wallet and Snapshot in the right place .
4 — Restore the wallet.dat and espers.conf in ESP Data Folder .
5 — Create a desktop shortcut for the wallet .

NOTE: full client will not always show the latest version and to not be alarmed the FULL client will update itself to the latest one on it’s own and therefore has the uploaded version updated less often.
If you are using the full client, and see old version on the client infos, don’t worry. with the auto-updater you will stay on date automatically

Download the file, and unpack the launcher to your desktop or any folder.
Run the espers launcher, it should do some installation first, after that, close the launcher, and reopen it. Now hit “Check for updates” and if it says, you are on latest version, and you can run espers wallet from the launcher.

Unpack the files to your desktop or folder.

Using the bootstrap (ESPERS ChainData)

This method works on both systems (Windows, Linux and Mac OS). Just the location of the “ESP” folder changes.

You will find the link to download the bootstrap on this page: https://espers.io/wallet.html

After downloading the bootstrap, you have to clean up your ESP folder (except the “wallet.dat” and “Espers.conf”), then do this:

Windows:
Unzip the bootstrap files into “ESP” folder: C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming folder, and move your wallet.dat to there (/appdata/roaming/ESP) (if you have one) and run the wallet. It will sync the remaining blocks left from the date of bootstrap.

Mac:
Unzip the bootstrap files into “ESP” folder:
/Users/<your-user-name>/Library/Application Support/ESP and open the wallet.

Ubuntu/linux
Unzip the bootstrap files into “ESP” folder:
~/.ESP and run your wallet.

If you need to edit RPC username, or edit other configs, you can find the do that in

windows:

C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\ESP\Espers.conf

mac:

/Users/<your-user-name>/Library/Application Support/ESP/Espers.conf

linux:

/home/user/.ESP/Espers.conf
