v0.1.0

Hey early adopter! Thanks for taking a look at Bitsquare's very first milestone release. See the announcement blog post and list of features implemented for complete details. Check the roadmap to see where we're headed from here.

At bottom you'll find installers and executables. Just download, double-click and follow the instructions for the one matching your operating system:

• Windows (.exe)
• Mac OS X (.dmg)
• Linux (.deb)

If you have Java 8u20 or better installed and prefer to work directly with an executable jar, download bitsquare-0.1.0-app.jar and run it with the following command:

$ java -jar bitsquare-0.1.0-app.jar

Most users can disregard the bitsquare-0.1.0-bootstrapNode.jar file, but if you wish to test Bitsquare locally in regtest mode you'll need to download and run this file as an executable jar as well (same instructions as above).

As mentioned in the announcement blog post, Bitsquare is alpha-quality software. It runs on the bitcoin testnet by default, and you should under no circumstances think it's safe to run on mainnet with real bitcoins. You've been warned.

For getting started you can find help in our user guide.
If you have trouble connecting to the Bitsquare network, you may need to configure manual port forwarding. If you run into other issues please let us know by creating a GitHub Issue. Thanks!
