| | 12 | Intro\r |
| | 13 | -----\r |
| | 14 | Bitcoin is a free open source peer-to-peer electronic cash system that is\r |
| | 15 | completely decentralized, without the need for a central server or trusted\r |
| | 16 | parties. Users hold the crypto keys to their own money and transact directly\r |
| | 17 | with each other, with the help of a P2P network to check for double-spending.\r |

| | 24 | Bitcoin Core is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network.\r |
| | 25 | However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions;\r |
| | 26 | depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization\r |
| | 27 | process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.\r |
