Greetings to all.

My question is not about the Electrum wallet in particular. It is about software wallets in general. Since the Electrum wallet is a prestigious software wallet for its privacy and security, I thought that some of its users probably know this.

What I have heard a number of times when learning about btc security, is that when you use a software wallet, your private key is briefly exposed during a transaction, and thus, this opens the door to the private key being stolen.

Does anyone know if this is indeed the case?


Cordially,
