-Running P2Pool:
-    To use P2Pool, you must be running your own local bitcoind. For standard
-    configurations, using P2Pool should be as simple as:
-
-        python run_p2pool.py
-
-    Then run your miner program, connecting to 127.0.0.1 on port 9332 with any
-    username and password.
-
-    If you are behind a NAT, you should enable TCP port forwarding on your
-    router. Forward port 9333 to the host running P2Pool.
-
-    Run "python run_p2pool.py --help" for additional options.

-Notes for Litecoin:
-    Requirements:
-        In order to run P2Pool with the Litecoin network, you would need to build and install the
-        ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that Litecoin uses for hashes.
+Additional info about scrypt module:
+        In order to run P2Pool with the NovaCoin network, you would need to build and install the
+        ltc_scrypt module that includes the scrypt proof of work code that NovaCoin uses for block hashes.
