However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Bitcoin 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. If you would like the process to go faster you can [download the blockchain directly](bootstrap.md). diff --git a/doc/README_windows.txt b/doc/README_windows.txt index 5ac1152055..c582941696 100644 --- a/doc/README_windows.txt +++ b/doc/README_windows.txt @@ -1,13 +1,5 @@ -Bitcoin 0.10.99 - -Copyright (c) 2009-2014 Bitcoin Core Developers - -Distributed under the MIT software license, see the accompanying -file COPYING or http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php. -This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in -the OpenSSL Toolkit (https://www.openssl.org/).
