-# docker-bitcoin-core
+# :boom: docker-bitcoin-core :boom:
 A set of scripts to run a bitcoin-core binary within a docker container.
 
+There is much concern about running a bitcoin core node from other docker containers as one is not truly certain if the code that has been compiled is not tampered with.
+
+This is an attempt to compile the bitcoin-core binaries from [source code](https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin) and have them run within a docker container to make it more portable and easier to upgrade between versions.
+
 For more information on how to work with these scripts, refer to this blog [post](https://nolanrumble.com/security/?p=176)
