DESCRIPTION

12       Electrum is a lightweight bitcoin client.
13       Electrum  protects from losing bitcoins in a backup mistake or computer
14       failure. It allows recovery of wallet from a passphrase which  you  can
15       learn by heart or write it down on a paper.
16       Since  electrum  does not download the entire bitcoin block chain there
17       is no waiting time when the client is started.
