In this demo, Electrum developer Chris Belcher shows how to set up and use an Electrum personal server.

ZClassic (ZCL) has released a beta version of the ZCL Electrum wallet.

Why use Electrum? Here are a dozen of the benefits of electrum wallets.

In recent days, hackers or hacker groups have stolen more than 200 bitcoins worth about $750,000 by attacking the infrastructure of electrum Bitcoin wallets. The attacker is targeting Electrum.

The fact that not many people know is that Esplora is bundled with a based and optimized Electrum server. This Electrum server is derived from Electrs and is now maintained separately by the Blockstream engineering team. Over the past two years, Esplora has become one of the fastest and most scalable Electrum server solutions available for Bitcoin due to continuous updates and performance optimization. Esplora is also the only Electrum server that supports liquid networks.

However, many users of Electrum are still in the old version (less than 3.3.4), and the old version is still under threat. However, we do not rule out a similar threat to the new version.

The attacker set up a large number of malicious servers. Once a user's Electrum wallet is connected to these servers, they see what appears to be an official message when they send a Bitcoin transaction, telling them to upgrade the Electrum wallet, which actually contains a fraudulent URL.

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

I can put the key in a USB drive wallet and put it in my 5-year-old niece's toy house. This storage is cold (this toy house doesn't have wi-fi), but it's also a bad idea.
