Summary

Electrum is an easy to use Bitcoin client. It protects you from losing

coins in a backup mistake or computer failure, because your wallet can

be recovered from a secret phrase that you can write on paper or learn

by heart. There is no waiting time when you start the client, because

it does not download the Bitcoin block chain.
