Google researcher Tavis Ormandy discovered the Bitcoin wallet Electrum.

Bitcoin Wallet Electrum releases 4.0, adding support for features such as Lightning Network and PSBT.

Slow fog alert: Bitcoin wallet Electrum "updates phishing" currency theft continues.

Wallet Electrum was upgraded by the DoS attack, with users allegedly losing millions of dollars.

On December 27, Reddit user u/normal_rc reported that Electrum's wallet had been hacked and that nearly 250 bitcoins (243.6 BTCs, nearly $1 million) had been maliciously stolen, coinelegraph reported. Electrum then confirmed that the attack included creating a fake version of the wallet to trick users into providing password information. Electrum responded on Twitter that "this is a persistent phishing attack on Electrum users" and warned users not to download Electrum from any source other than the official website.

Bitcoin Wallet Electrum has released a beta version of Electrum 4.0, which supports the Lightning Network.

In contrast, another wallet, Stratis Electrum, is a simplified trading client.

Another upgrade under study is the release of a new version of the Electrum-LTC desktop wallet. Electrum-LTC is an SPV wallet that can be used in Windows, Linux, and OS X operating systems.

Electrum is another popular Bitcoin wallet that has been around for nearly a decade. Electrum Bitcoin Wallet has been available for all devices since 2011 and was one of the most widely used wallet applications before other alternatives emerged. There are still a lot of people who are still swearing at the Electrum wallet.
