A multi-chain crypto wallet for your desktop

Zelcore is a free, non-custodial desktop crypto wallet for Windows, macOS and Linux. One application holds Bitcoin, Ethereum and EVM networks, Solana, Kaspa, Kadena, Monero, Zcash and more than 80 other blockchains, with 100,000+ tokens available without adding a separate wallet for each chain.

The desktop app is where Zelcore features land first and where you get the most screen space: a full portfolio view across every chain, swaps and purchases inside the app, staking, node management, and hardware wallet pairing. If you hold assets on more than a couple of networks, this is the version to start with. The mobile wallet and browser extension share the same account, so you can add them later.

How Zelcore keeps your keys yours

Zelcore never holds your funds. A modern account is a 12- or 24-word seed phrase using the industry-standard BIP44 derivation, so the same phrase restores your wallet on any device and can be imported into other BIP44-compatible wallets. Private keys are generated and encrypted on your computer; they are not sent to Zelcore or anyone else.

Decentralized two-factor authentication (d2FA)

d2FA adds a PIN check for high-value transactions and sensitive settings. Instead of relying on a single authentication server, verification is distributed across a decentralized network, so there is no central service to compromise or take offline.

Biometrics and device security

On supported hardware you can unlock with Windows Hello or a fingerprint reader. Biometric checks are processed locally and never leave the machine. Zelcore also recommends full-disk encryption (BitLocker, FileVault) and a strong, unique password of at least 12 characters.

Hardware wallet support (desktop only)

Pair a Ledger Nano S, S Plus or X, or a Trezor One or Model T, and Zelcore becomes the interface while the keys stay on the device. Every transaction is confirmed on the hardware wallet itself, so a compromised computer cannot sign on your behalf. Hardware pairing is available on desktop; the mobile app and extension do not support it.

Recovery

Your seed phrase is the only backup. Write it on paper or metal, keep copies in separate secure places, and never store it digitally or type it into a website. Zelcore support will never ask for it. Legacy accounts created before the seed-phrase migration still use a username and password and keep their password reset flow. See the security best practices for the full checklist.

What you can do in the desktop wallet

Hold and track 100,000+ assets on 80+ chains in one portfolio, with per-asset transaction history. See the supported chains and assets.

Buy, sell and swap without leaving the app through the integrated exchange providers, including swaps between different chains.

Stake directly from the wallet on networks such as Solana, NEAR and Sui, and run or manage FluxNodes.

Hold and swap tokenized stocks (bStocks) alongside your crypto, added in release 8.37.

Convert Flux assets between chains with Fusion, consolidate UTXOs for Bitcoin-style chains, and switch backend nodes by region when a network is congested.

Use the built-in Smartify tool to resync balances if a chain node falls behind.

Connect to dApps through the browser extension, which shares your desktop account.

Install Zelcore on Windows, macOS or Linux

Pick your installer from the cards above; the page detects your operating system. Each release ships as a Windows installer and portable build, macOS builds for Apple Silicon and Intel, and Linux .deb and .AppImage packages. Release notes for every version are published in the newsroom.

Windows: Windows 10 or later, 64-bit. Choose the installer for a standard setup or the portable build to run from a folder or USB drive.

macOS: macOS 10.13 High Sierra or later. Download the Apple Silicon build for M-series Macs and the Intel build for older machines.

Linux: Ubuntu 18.04+, Fedora 32+ or any distribution that runs .deb or AppImage packages. The AppImage needs no installation; make it executable and run it.

First run: create a new account and write down the seed phrase, or import an existing seed. The setup guide walks through both.

Who builds Zelcore

Zelcore has been in continuous development since 2018 and is built by InFlux Technologies, the team behind the Flux decentralized cloud. Releases ship regularly (the 8.3x series added Hyperliquid, Kaspa fee improvements, NEAR and Sui staking, the Sui network migration and bStocks), and the code lives under the ZelCore GitHub organisation. Support is community-first on Discord, with documentation at docs.zelcore.io.
