-What is Dash?
--------------
-
-Dash is an experimental digital currency that enables instant, private
-payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Dash uses peer-to-peer technology
-to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money
-are carried out collectively by the network. Dash Core is the name of the open
-source software which enables the use of this currency.
-
-For more information, as well as an immediately useable, binary version of
-the Dash Core software, see https://www.dash.org/get-dash/.
-
-
-License
--------
-
-Dash Core is released under the terms of the MIT license. See [COPYING](COPYING) for more
-information or see https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT.
-
-Development Process
--------------------
-
-The `master` branch is meant to be stable. Development is normally done in separate branches.
-[Tags](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/tags) are created to indicate new official,
-stable release versions of Dash Core.
-
-The contribution workflow is described in [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md)
-and useful hints for developers can be found in [doc/developer-notes.md](doc/developer-notes.md).
-
-Testing
--------
-
-Testing and code review is the bottleneck for development; we get more pull
-requests than we can review and test on short notice. Please be patient and help out by testing
-other people's pull requests, and remember this is a security-critical project where any mistake might cost people
-lots of money.
-
-### Automated Testing
-
-Developers are strongly encouraged to write [unit tests](src/test/README.md) for new code, and to
-submit new unit tests for old code. Unit tests can be compiled and run
-(assuming they weren't disabled in configure) with: `make check`. Further details on running
-and extending unit tests can be found in [/src/test/README.md](/src/test/README.md).
-
-There are also [regression and integration tests](/test), written
-in Python, that are run automatically on the build server.
-These tests can be run (if the [test dependencies](/test) are installed) with: `test/functional/test_runner.py`
-
-The Travis CI system makes sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
-
-### Manual Quality Assurance (QA) Testing
-
-Changes should be tested by somebody other than the developer who wrote the
-code. This is especially important for large or high-risk changes. It is useful
-to add a test plan to the pull request description if testing the changes is
-not straightforward.
-
-Translations
-------------
-
-Changes to translations as well as new translations can be submitted to
-[Dash Core's Transifex page](https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/dash/).
-
-Translations are periodically pulled from Transifex and merged into the git repository. See the
-[translation process](doc/translation_process.md) for details on how this works.
-
-**Important**: We do not accept translation changes as GitHub pull requests because the next
-pull from Transifex would automatically overwrite them again.
-
-Translators should also follow the [forum](https://www.dash.org/forum/topic/dash-worldwide-collaboration.88/).
