+bitcoin (P2P electronic cash system)
+
+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.
+
+This requires: qrencode
+
+UPNP is disabled, it requires miniupnpc, which is not available on SBo.
+
+Package provides both, bitcoin-qt (GUI) and bitcoind (CLI).
