Private crypto wallet for Linux: AppImage and .deb

Install

One command

It downloads the latest release from GitHub, checks its SHA-256 against SHA256SUMS and stops if they differ.

Windows · PowerShell

irm https://kyrowallet.com/install.ps1 | iex

macOS and Linux · Terminal

curl -fsSL https://kyrowallet.com/install.sh | sh

Downloads the latest release from GitHub, checks its SHA-256 against SHA256SUMS, then installs it. The scripts are open source: install.ps1 · install.sh (website/src).

Or the file

Install by hand

Run the one-line command: it installs ~/.local/bin/kyro with a menu entry.
Or download Kyro-linux-x86_64.AppImage, verify it, make it executable and run it.
On Debian or Ubuntu you can use the .deb instead: sudo apt install ./Kyro-linux-amd64.deb.

Kyro-linux-x86_64.AppImage Kyro-linux-amd64.deb SHA256SUMS

Kyro-linux-x86_64.AppImage: Recommended, updates itself. Kyro-linux-amd64.deb: Debian and Ubuntu, no self-update.

Terminal

$ sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing
$ chmod +x Kyro-linux-x86_64.AppImage
$ ./Kyro-linux-x86_64.AppImage

Notes

Good to know on Linux

FUSE 2

AppImages need FUSE 2. Install libfuse2 on Ubuntu 22.04, or libfuse2t64 on Ubuntu 24.04 and later.

AppImage or .deb

The AppImage updates itself. The .deb does not: install the new .deb to update.

udev rules

Hardware wallets need the manufacturer’s udev rules so Kyro can open the device. Ledger and Trezor both publish them.

Phrase window

Screen-capture protection does not exist on Linux. Check that nobody can see your screen.

Same on every system

The full wallet, everywhere

The Linux build is the same Kyro: 36 blockchains, swaps, Earn, hardware wallets and Tor from the first launch. The interface is in English and French.
