+# BCH API
+
+This is a fork and alternative implementation of
+the [rest.bitcoin.com](https://github.com/Bitcoin-com/rest.bitcoin.com) repository.
+This repository is intended to be used for my own personal use, but it's licensed
+under the MIT license like the original rest repo was, so people are free to use
+it and modify it as they see fit.
+
+This repository is intended to be paired with my alternative implementation
+of [BITBOX SDK](https://github.com/Bitcoin-com/bitbox-sdk):
+[BITBOX JS](https://github.com/christroutner/bitbox-js).
+
+Here is a YouTube video explaining the use of BITBOX and this REST API:

+
+Since this repo is being worked on by one person, as a hobby, updates will be
+slow. But the road map I have planned is as follows:
+
+- Remove TypeScript and any other compiled languages, converting the repository
+to standard ES8 JavaScript.
+
+- Replace the need for Insight API with Blockbook API.
+
+- Audit all npm dependencies and try to fix/remove any vulnerabilities.
+
+- Setup automated dependency management through Greenkeeper, and automated
+continuous-release with semantic versioning through Semantic Release.
+
+- Ensure all unit and integration tests are passing.
+
+- Update SLP token endpoints. Not totally sure of the scope here.
