+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.
+
+Bitcoin Core connects to the Bitcoin peer-to-peer network to
+download and fully validate blocks and transactions.
+
+Please make sure to read the release notes first before upgrading:
+https://bitcoincore.org/en/releases/29.0/
+
+zeromq is an optional dependency (autodetected).  To disable building the graphical components, set GUI=off when building.
+
+To run bitcoin as a system, add to /etc/rc.d/rc.local:
+
+  if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.bitcoind ]; then
+    /etc/rc.d/rc.bitcoind start
+  fi
+
+and to /etc/rc.d/rc.local_shutdown (creating it if needed):
+
+  if [ -x /etc/rc.d/rc.bitcoind ]; then
+    /etc/rc.d/rc.bitcoind stop
+  fi
+
+The script requires a 'bitcoin' user/group before running.
