How to use
On Ubuntu 20.04 or 22.04
The quick and easy way in your terminal:
wget https://github.com/stake-house/eth-wizard/releases/download/v0.9.1/ethwizard-0.9.1.pyz && sudo python3 ethwizard-0.9.1.pyz
If you manually downloaded the bundle:
sudo python3 ethwizard-0.9.1.pyz
On Windows 10 or 11
Please note that some antivirus software might detect the wizard binary as a threat and delete it or prevent its execution.
Run ethwizard-0.9.1.exe
As an alternative, you can download and install a recent version of Python (make sure to select the option for file associations which is included in the default Install Now option), download the ethwizard-0.9.1.pyz bundle and double-click on it. This alternative is less likely to trigger your antivirus software.
