+## Legal stuff
+
+Everything is under DecentraLicense 1.0 (DCL-1.0) which can be found in `LICENSES/`.
+
+This is basically `CAL-1.0` which is an open source license
+https://opensource.org/license/cal-1-0
+
+The non-legal summary of DCL-1.0 is that the source is open, as expected, but
+also user data in the systems that this code runs on must also be made available
+to those users as relevant, and that private keys remain private.
+
+Roughly it's "not your keys, not your coins" aware, as close as we could get in
+legalese.
+
+This is the default situation on permissionless blockchains, so shouldn't require
+any additional effort by dev-users to adhere to the license terms.
+
+This repo is REUSE 3.2 compliant https://reuse.software/spec-3.2/ and compatible
+with `reuse` tooling (also available in the nix shell here).
