-A Bitcoin node verifies the Bitcoin protocol and provides ways of interacting with the Bitcoin network. nix-bitcoin
-nodes are used for a variety of purposes and can serve as personal or merchant wallets, second layer public

+nix-bitcoin is built on top of Nix and [NixOS](https://nixos.org/) which provide powerful abstractions to keep it highly customizable and
 maintainable. Testament to this are nix-bitcoin's robust security features and its potent test framework.  However,
 running nix-bitcoin does not require any previous experience with the Nix ecosystem.
