Hi

Can you run Electrum alongside Bitcoin-QT and have 2 wallets live on the same computer? I want to download Electrum but I'm worried it'll mess my Bitcoin-QT wallet file up - it is backed up btw Wink

Cheers

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

You can also run multiple instances of electrum each with its own wallet if you use the correct commandline options. Same goes for the BitcoinQt. So you don't have to use 2 different clients if your goal is to use multiple wallets at the same time on the same computer.
