GM. We have news!

We’ve launched the first build of ethOS.

ethOS is easy to install.

ethOS updates OTA.

ethOS features an onboard light node.

Install it on a Pixel 3 or 5a!

Say goodbye to cumbersome side-loading!

Grab an **OEM unlocked** Pixel 3 or 5a, connect it to your laptop, and click the link to our automated web installer which walks you through the process.

We are currently developing builds for both the Google Pixel 3 and Pixel 5a.

Staying current is effortless. ethOS 1.0 now supports automatic OTA updates!

No more remembering to check for new versions, and nothing manual to do when they’re ready. Just new features, airdropped (no not that kind!😅) directly to your device.

With ethOS, you'll have hardware with direct access to native crypto apps, including your own on-device Ethereum light node, and a mobile OS that won’t gate-keep and censor Web3 builders.

And you definitely want those OTA updates for some of the exciting things we’re working on next, including a native app to mint NFTs directly from your camera, and @xmtp_ integration folded into the SMS messenger, to decentralize messaging at the OS layer!

Permissionless blockchains need a permissionless OS.

Let’s make it a reality together! 🚀
