The Electrum Atom wallet is a fork of the well known Electrum Bitcoin wallet, offering numerous advanced features for the world’s first cryptocurrency, which are now also available for Bitcoin Atom (BCA) owners.

As with its Bitcoin twin, the Electrum Atom wallet is a lightweight wallet that supports cold storage and multi-signature features. It is a fork of one of the oldest and most trusted Bitcoin wallets available.

Electrum Atom is powered by the recently launched ElectrumX Atom instances, which are servers for the upcoming Tritium project from the Bitcoin Atom team. Tritium combines the most advanced approaches to decentralized trading, with private OTC.

At present, Electrum Atom is available for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. The Bitcoin Atom team is also evaluating possible Android support in the future. Hardware wallet support for Electrum Atom is not expected for the time being, though the Bitcoin Atom team can integrate Ledger and Trezor wallets once those hardware wallets support Bitcoin Atom (BCA).

As with the original Bitcoin Electrum wallet, the Electrum Atom wallet is an open source project released under an MIT license.

About Bitcoin Atom

Bitcoin Atom (BCA) is a SegWit enabled Bitcoin fork with on-chain atomic swaps on board and hybrid consensus. Bitcoin Atom enables truly decentralized digital asset exchange by utilizing hash time-locked contracts (HTLCs) and its own HTLC API, giving independence from intermediaries and any centralized entities.

Bitcoin Atom’s development team is working on a special embedded toolkit for both on-chain and off-chain atomic swaps, allowing for exchanging any cryptocurrencies in a hassle-free way across different blockchains. Lightning Network off-chain swaps are scheduled to be launched in 2018.
