README.md

Dogecoin 0.9.0rc1 BETA

Setup

Dogecoin Core is the original Dogecoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Dogecoin transactions (which is currently several GBs); depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more. Thankfully you only have to do this once.

Running

The following are some helpful notes on how to run Dogecoin on your native platform.

Unix

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) or bin/32/dogecoind (headless, 32-bit)
bin/64/dogecoin-qt (GUI, 64-bit) or bin/64/dogecoind (headless, 64-bit)

Windows

Unpack the files into a directory, and then run dogecoin-qt.exe.

OSX

Drag Dogecoin-Qt to your applications folder, and then run Dogecoin-Qt.
