* Package name : electrum-nmc Version : 4.0.6 Upstream Contact: Jeremy Rand <jer...@namecoin.org> * URL : https://www.namecoin.org/docs/electrum-nmc/ * License : MIT Programming Lang: Python Description : Easy to use Namecoin client This package provides a lightweight Namecoin client which protects you from losing your namecoins or names in a backup mistake or computer failure. Also, Electrum-NMC does not require waiting time because it does not download the Namecoin blockchain. . Features of Electrum-NMC: . * Instant on: Your client does not download the blockchain. It uses a network of specialized servers that index the blockchain. * Forgiving: Your wallet can be recovered from a secret seed. * Safe: Your seed and private keys are encrypted on your hard drive. They are never sent to the servers. * Low trust: Information received from the servers is verified using SPV. Servers are authenticated using SSL. * No downtimes: Your client is not tied to a particular server; it will switch instantly if your server is down. * Ubiquitous: You can use the same wallet on different computers, they will synchronize automatically. * Cold Storage: Sign transactions from a computer that is always offline. Broadcast them using a machine that does not have your keys. * Reachable: You can export your private keys into other Namecoin clients. * Electrum-NMC is open source and is a fork of Electrum, which was first released in November 2011. I plan to maintain this package with support provided by NLnet, and to contact the Debian Cryptocoin Team for review and sponsorship.
