Particl Core is the original Particl client and it builds the backbone of the network. It downloads and, by default, stores the entire history of Particl transactions, which requires a few gigabytes of disk space. Depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
To download Particl Core, visit particl.io.
The following are some helpful notes on how to run Particl Core on your native platform.
Unpack the files into a directory and run:
bin/particl-qt(GUI) orbin/particld(headless)
Unpack the files into a directory, and then run particl-qt.exe.
Drag Particl Core to your applications folder, and then run Particl Core.
