Intro
---------------------
Dogecoin 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
---------------------
You need the Qt4 run-time libraries to run Dogecoin-Qt. On Debian or Ubuntu:
        `sudo apt-get install libqtgui4`

Unpack the files into a directory and run:

- bin/32/Dogecoin-qt (GUI, 32-bit)
- bin/32/Dogecoind (headless, 32-bit)
- bin/64/Dogecoin-qt (GUI, 64-bit)
- bin/64/Dogecoind (headless, 64-bit)

for help and more information.
