It has same developers as Electrum? Why Electrum didn't add download link of Electrum cash in it's website?? Is it because Electrum hadn't trust to Electrum cash's developers or codes or services? Title: Re: Is Electrum cash trusted? Post by: TryNinja on August 04, 2017, 06:42:41 PM Electrum cash is trusted? Not really. I used them to check out my Bcash and it worked. But it's still not a 100% safe software.It has same developers as Electrum? No. It's just a fork.Why Electrum didn't add download link of Electrum cash in it's website?? Because it's not from the same team.Is it because Electrum hadn't trust to Electrum cash's developers or codes or services? Yes.Electrum actually released this statement about Electron Cash Quote The name "Electrum" has been visible on bitcoincash.org and https://electrum.org/bcc.txtelectrumcash.org, with a modified version of our logo. The use of our name and logo constitutes a trademark infringement. We have never enforced our trademark against altcoin versions of Electrum (such as Litecoin, etc), because we consider that users of these altcoins are well aware of the distinction between Bitcoin and their coin, and that they cannot be harmed by that confusion. However, we do not agree with the use of the Electrum name in the context of a Bitcoin fork, because it suggests that we endorse that fork, and that we also endorse that wallet. We reserve ourselves the right to use the name Electrum for a Bitcoin Cash wallet, should we decide to publish one in the future. |
