Electrum is a free and open source Bitcoin wallet software that was released in 2011. It is a lightweight client which means it doesn’t require the user to download the full blockchain to use the wallet. It is available as a desktop application for Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems, as well as an Android app and a web interface. Electrum offers users a wide range of features, including secure storage of private keys, support for multiple currencies, integration with hardware wallets, and encrypting private keys with a password. It also offers users the ability to make transactions quickly, as well as back up the wallet and restore it from a seed phrase. Furthermore, Electrum supports a wide range of altcoins, including Litecoin, Dogecoin, and Dash.
