+Intro
+-----
+PPCoin 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
+-----
+Unpack the files into a directory and run:
+ bin/32/ppcoind (headless, 32-bit)
+ bin/64/ppcoind (headless, 64-bit)
+
+The software automatically finds other nodes to connect to.  You can
+enable Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) with your router/firewall
+or forward port 9901 (TCP) to your computer so you can receive
+incoming connections.  PPCoin works without incoming connections,
+but allowing incoming connections helps the PPCoin network.
