Standalone downloads are available on [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/NethermindEth/nethermind/releases) as ZIP archives for x86-64 and AArch64 (ARM64) CPU architectures for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

### Signatures

For security guarantees, Nethermind provides an OpenPGP signature for each package as a separate .asc file (detached signature), signed with the following key: [`AD12 7976 5093 C675 9CD8 A400 24A7 7461 6F1E 617E`](https://keyserver.ubuntu.com/pks/lookup?search=24A774616F1E617E&fingerprint=on&op=index)

To begin with verification, import the above signing key as follows:

```bash
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys 24A774616F1E617E
```

Then, download the corresponding .asc file to verify the package of your choice. For instance:

```bash
gpg --verify nethermind-1.37.0-0048e77d-linux-x64.zip.asc nethermind-1.37.0-0048e77d-linux-x64.zip
```
