A new version of Electrum Wallet v0.18.16 was released.

June 28 (Xinhua) -- Bitcoin desktop wallet client Electrum has released a 4.0 beta version, adding several important updates to support the Lightning network. Electrum primarily adds features such as PSBT (partially signed Bitcoin transactions), Lightning Network, watchtowers (暸 watchtowers), and Submarine Swaps (subliminal switching).

You can download electrum Bitcoin Wallet on the official website "electrum.org". Electrum is also available to users of Ledger Nano S, KeepKey, and TREZOR hardware wallets.

So far, Electrum Wallet has gone through various iterations to keep up with the growth of the cryptocurrencies industry to provide its users with a high level of security at any time. The wallet is easier to use than Bitcoin Core wallets and allows users to create wallets with other security features, such as two-factor authentication, multi-signature wallets, and more. In addition to creating and using new wallets, Electrum allows users to import other Bitcoin blockchain wallets by entering the wallet's seed or master key. It can also be used to manage hardware wallets.

When an Electrum wallet queries a third-party Electrum server, the server can link two transactions together and know which address is a zero address.

Hoenicke also points out that there are some technical "small" problems with quarantine testimony, such as a vulnerability in Litecoin Mobile Wallet Electrum-LTC that causes users to "crash" when using older versions to send quarantine witness transactions. Hoenicke also noted that some users, after using the conversion tool, confuse addresses and send bitcoins to the isolated witness address of Litecoin.
