  Description     : A Java implementation of a BitCoin client-only node

BitCoinJ implements the native BitCoin P2P protocol, which allows it to
maintain a wallet and send/receive transactions without needing a local
copy of the official implementation. It comes with full documentation
and some example apps showing how to use the library.

The project aims to be easier to understand than the C++ implementation,
and be suitable for usage on constrained devices such as mobile phones.

BitCoinJ implements the "simplified payment verification" mode of
Satoshis paper. It does not store a full copy of the block chain,
rather, it stores what it needs in order to verify transactions with the
aid of an untrusted peer node.
