Only messages for now, executable names and other file names can be changed later if necessary and safe. Do not do an all-sweeping change. Some occurences of Bitcoin-Qt need to be kept: - Applicationname: this is used to determine the registry entry names, we don't want to lose settings over a silly name change. - Where it refers to the executable name instead of the product name.

Intro
|
|
-----
|
|
Bitcoin is a free open source peer-to-peer electronic cash system that is
|
|
completely decentralized, without the need for a central server or trusted
|
|
parties. Users hold the crypto keys to their own money and transact directly
|
|
with each other, with the help of a P2P network to check for double-spending.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setup
|
|
-----
|
|
Unpack the files into a directory and run bitcoin-qt.exe.
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network.
|
|
However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions;
|
|
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.
