The UB team has now developed Core, Core-QT, Electrum Wallet (where Electrum is a lightweight wallet that supports multiple signatures) and released a complete blockchain browser. More than 18 trading platforms around the world support UBTC trading.

A botnet with more than 140,000 machines has launched a DoS attack on the server of Bitcoin wallet Electrum in an attempt to direct users to software versions designed to steal Bitcoin.

Security researchers familiar with the matter say that if a user installs a fake version of Electrum, all funds contained in the old version will be lost immediately. (TNW)
