StrongHands (StrongHands) 0.4.0 BETA
Copyright (c) 2011-2014 StrongHands (StrongHands) Developers
Distributed under the MIT/X11 software license, see the accompanying
file license.txt or http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php.
This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in
the OpenSSL Toolkit (http://www.openssl.org/). This product includes
cryptographic software written by Eric Young (eay@cryptsoft.com).
Intro
-----
StrongHands is a free open source project derived from Bitcoin, with
the goal of providing a long-term energy-efficient crypto-currency.
Built on the foundation of Bitcoin, innovations such as proof-of-stake
help further advance the field of crypto-currency.
Setup
-----
After completing windows setup then run stronghands-qt.
Alternatively you can run windows command line (cmd) in stronghands program dir.
cd daemon
stronghandsd
You would need to create a configuration file stronghands.conf in the default
wallet directory. Grant access to stronghandsd/stronghands-qt in anti-virus and firewall
applications if necessary.
The software automatically finds other nodes to connect to. You can
enable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) with your router/firewall
or forward port 6901 (TCP) to your computer so you can receive
incoming connections. StrongHands works without incoming connections,
but allowing incoming connections helps the StrongHands network.
Upgrade
-------
All your existing coins/transactions should be intact with the upgrade.
To upgrade from 0.3, first backup wallet in qt menu or by command line
stronghandsd backupwallet <destination_backup_file>
Then shutdown stronghandsd by
stronghandsd stop
Uninstall v0.3 client, download and install v0.4 client.
If upgrade is performed after upgrade deadline, blockchain re-download is
required.

Bitcoin 0.6.3 BETA
Copyright (c) 2009-2012 Bitcoin Developers
Distributed under the MIT/X11 software license, see the accompanying
file license.txt or http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php.
This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in
the OpenSSL Toolkit (http://www.openssl.org/). This product includes
cryptographic software written by Eric Young (eay@cryptsoft.com).
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.
