## What is Fully Noded?

Your node, your Bitcoin!

Fully Noded is a bitcoin wallet that is powered completely by your own node over Tor. This makes using Bitcoin a truly self sovereign, private and secure experience, exactly the way it should be.

Fully Noded offers an intuitive yet powerful interface where the home screen displays stats about the Bitcoin network as seen by your node, the active wallet tab offers a powerful but simple wallet experience that allows you to utilize single signature and multi signature wallets. 

Fully Noded uses psbt’s (partially signed bitcoin transactions) and output descriptors to take advantage of the latest and greatest functionality the Bitcoin Core codebase has to offer. With this architecture Fully Noded always keeps your private keys safely encrypted and securely stored on your device, users always have the ability to delete their seed words from the device and add them later at anytime. Fully Noded never stores your private keys on your node.

Generally the way it works is Fully Noded uses a Bitcoin library called LibWally to sign transactions locally and create private keys locally. Your node acts a watch-only wallet and builds psbt’s which Fully Noded signs without letting your private keys get exposed to network requests.

Fully Noded is also a powerful recovery tool, you can add any BIP39 recovery phrase and it will recover all of the popular wallets for you.

The app offers excellent interoperability with Coldcard, just airdrop wallet export files and psbt’s to Fully Noded and watch the magic happen, using your Coldcard as a watch-only or multisig wallet powered by your own node has never been easier.

For full functionality and compatibility we recommend using Bitcoin Core 0.20.0

For advanced users Fully Noded has a powerful suite of tools which are essentially a interface between you and your node’s bitcoin-cli commands as well, its a great learning tool where you can interact with Bitcoin Core like never before.

### 5/5 — GOATED

*2026-02-10*

Great app. Simple, solid, private.

### 1/5 — App used to be good

*2025-12-05*

The app used to be great. Now I can’t import any wallets on it from COLDCARD. JSON doesn’t work, descriptors don’t work, nothing. Hope it gets fixed

### 5/5 — Best wallet !

*2025-08-19*

Underrated ! Not sure why this isnt a household name.  It SHOULD be !

### 3/5 — This wallet is just fun

*2025-08-13*

I find myself frequently returning to this wallet from time to time. I really like the internal tor proxy and seeing the stats of your node. That’s mainly why I keep returning to it.

A few things I’d like to see in it that would make this wallet 5 stars are:

1. CPFP (child pays for parent)

2. Ability to import labels from other wallets

3. Ability to be more precise in your fees i.e. 1.9 sats v/byte instead of either 1 or 2 sats v/byte

4. Tweaking the fees. I’ll put in one thing, then when I see the PSBT to export it, it says something totally different.

5. NFC for Tapsigner & COLDCARD 

6. And an Uncle Jim mode. I’ve seen an old YouTube video of this feature but it’s gone now. I’ve got family who I’d love to let them connect to my node, but not at the expense of seeing all the others wallets I have on there

Overall pretty good app though. Just seems like it needs a facelift to modernize and make it more comparable to other wallets.

### 1/5 — Nicht empfehlenswert

*2024-12-11, version 1.3.0*

Interessant und vielseitig gestaltet
Verbunden mit meiner Fullnode
Und ich habe alle daten bekommen die ich brauche.
Boltz genutzt und zurückgeschickt.
58 110 sats weg
Wallet weg und wurde ersetzt
Transaktion wurse auf diese adresse laut mempool ausgeführt.
Teurer spaß😒

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-06-17*

Ive used all the wallets. Blue wallet sparrow etc.  this has been the most surprising one w so many features

### 5/5 — Most Intuitive I Have Used

*2023-12-07*

While personally setting up my Umbrel server as Bitcoin node seemed easy it proved to be clumsy and complicated until I found this app. I truthfully wasn't sure I was doing this correctly until Fully Noded. I'm not sure if my one node is making a impact in the ecosystem but it is nice to contribute to the community. One a side note I am not sure how they'll able to offer this app for free? It's really great.

### 5/5 — Beste Bitcoin Wallet

*2022-10-30, version 0.4.1*

Alle Funktionen die man für eine Bitcoin-App benötigt, top Support und enorm lehrreich.

### 5/5 — Clean

*2021-11-04, version 0.2.28*

Excellent node management and wallet. Very powerful! Great application.

### 5/5 — Unparalleled

*2021-01-29, version 0.2.11*

This is by far the best wallet software out there. It’s secure by design and works in the way Bitcoin was intended to. Most commonly used wallets are implemented with convenience in mind and have introduced fundamental flaws that compromise privacy. This does both. Terrific developer and community providing first class support on Telegram as well. Five stars, couldn’t be better.
