Review on Electrum Wallet by Ricardo Montero

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Electrum a really efficient bitcoin wallet

Electrum is in my opinion the best option for a desktop wallet. It is available on all three systems (Windows, Mac, Linux), and is one of the most popular and safest wallets for Bitcoin.

Bitcoin's Electrum wallet is also extremely light, which also makes it very fast. Using it is not complicated at all, although it can be a bit difficult for new users.

Unlike most easy-to-use wallets, Electrum doesn't really provide hints or tips on their features and how to use them, so discovering all of that is up to you.

Also, it only supports Bitcoin, so it's not the perfect option if you want to diversify your crypto assets. However, it is well known and respected in the crypto industry, so if you don't mind the fact that its user interface is not very polished and intuitive, it will be an excellent choice, a distraction-free solution for you.



Pros
  • Very very sure.
  • Light and really fast.
  • Use third party servers to confirm transactions.
  • Keep your private keys offline, and go online with a watching-only wallet
Cons
  • It is only compatible with Bitcoin.
  • It is not very polished or intuitive.
  • The same third-party servers compromise privacy.
