Hi, I'd like to know if anyone is able to provide a brief summary the optimizations in the following blockchain wallets:
1. Bitcoin Core
2. Ethereum
3. Electrum
Also, is there any way that I can bring together the optimizations into one rather than three apps?
1. Bitcoin Core is a full node wallet that requires you to download the full blockchain first. It allows for blockchain pruning, which enables you to safe on hard disk space. You still need to download the full blockchain either way though.
2. Ethereum... is an alternative crypto-currency that doesn't have anything to do with Bitcoin at all.
3. Electrum is a thin client that doesn't doesn't download the blockchain and instead relies on trusted servers to verify the blockchain for you.
Bitcoin Core and Electrum follow two fundamentally different approaches on how to handle the Bitcoin blockchain, so you can't "bring together the optimizations."
Ethereum, as mentioned above, runs on a wholly different blockchain.
