Turn a spare Android phone, your Windows PC, or your browser into a micronode, the entry tier of the Noderr Protocol. Contribute overhead compute to the mesh network, build on-chain reputation, and earn NODR tokens as the network routes you work. No minimum stake. Check the device requirements below.
On-Chain Reputation
Every node earns a TrustFingerprint™: a living, on-chain mark built from your uptime, success rate, and stake. It cannot be bought or transferred, and it follows you as you grow from a phone micronode toward Validator, Guardian, and Oracle. The higher your score, the more tasks you are routed and the more you earn.

Setup & Requirements
Pick your platform. Requirements and setup steps are listed below.
Tap "Download for Android". Open the APK, allow your browser to install it when Android asks, then open Noderr Micronode.
Choose "Share its connection" to contribute the phone's mobile connection. Choose "Set up a full node" only if you also want it to run automation tasks; that path needs the additional permissions below.
Read the in-app disclosure and give consent before sharing. Noderr traffic can use your mobile IP and data allowance. You can withdraw consent in the app.
Allow notifications when prompted, background running, and app updates. Connection sharing does not require Accessibility, Developer Options, or wireless pairing. After setup, check the app's connection status.
Choose "Set up a full node" in the first-run wizard. This also requires Accessibility, Developer Options, Wireless Debugging, and pairing; connect to Wi-Fi for wireless pairing. Follow the app's wallet and Utility NFT prompts for automation. These extra permissions are not part of connection-sharing setup.
Keep the phone plugged in with mobile data available. Choose the role in the first-run wizard; the current settings screen does not offer a role switch.
No iOS download is available. Choose Android, Windows, Mac, or a supported desktop browser to get started.
Click "Download for Windows" above. Open the downloaded setup file. Windows may show a SmartScreen notice for a new app, click "More info" then "Run anyway". It installs just for you, with no admin rights needed.
On first launch the app generates your node wallet and mints your free Utility NFT. Your private key is encrypted at rest on your PC. Use “Back up wallet” to save an encrypted keystore, or restore an existing one with your password.
Turn on “Keep node running” so your node stays online and earns in the background, even after a reboot. It lives quietly in your system tray. Right-click the tray icon anytime to open the dashboard or pause.
Runs quietly in your system tray and keeps earning in the background. Your wallet key never leaves your PC.
Mac 1.0.3 compatibility unresolved
The 1.0.3 bundle and release manifest list macOS 12.0; the executable's minimum is 26.0.0. Device compatibility and launch behavior remain unverified.
For the inspected Mac 1.0.3 package, the bundle and release manifest say macOS 12.0 while the executable declares minimum macOS 26.0.0. Supported OS versions remain unverified.
The 1.0.3 release metadata lists the app as unsigned and not notarized. Signing, notarization and first-launch behavior have not been independently verified for this package.
Wallet, Utility NFT and Keychain setup need validation for the exact Mac package. Use instructions for a verified compatible release before creating or restoring a node.
Follow verified release instructions to confirm registration and connection after setup. A download alone does not establish active-node participation or rewards.
This compatibility notice covers the inspected 1.0.3 package. Check the version of your download.
Click "Get from Chrome Web Store" above and confirm "Add extension." Works in Chrome, Edge, and Brave (all Chromium-based, all support Web Store installs directly). The Noderr icon appears in your toolbar, pin it for quick access.
Open the extension. It creates your node wallet and mints your free Utility NFT. Use “Back up / restore wallet” to save an encrypted keystore. Your node then connects to the network and stays live while your browser is open — earning activates as the network begins assigning work to browser nodes.
An unsigned, sideloadable zip is also available if you would rather not use the Web Store: download it, unzip into a folder you will keep, then open chrome://extensions, turn on "Developer mode," and click "Load unpacked."
Download the zipThe Chrome Web Store version is signed by Google on publish; the manual zip above is unsigned, for Developer Mode only. Works in Chrome, Edge, and Brave while your browser is open.
