How Many Forks Of Electrum Wallets Are There? BTC, LTC, BTG, BCH, DASH

[adaseb]

I have never bothered with any of these aftermarket Electrum forks (except Electron Cash) due to the fear of viruses and malware.

If you are pretty technical with computers you can download a program called Bitcoin Fork Claimer, its some python script that you can even run offline and you manually create a raw transaction you can later on broadcast to the network.

This way you don't need to worry about some fork being a scam and getting all your unclaimed coins stolen.

Is this the complete list?

At least of the most poplular ones. Anyone can fork Electrum and make a custom wallet for their coin. So the list will probably never be complete (unless you start hunting every fork there is). I wouldn't bother with it. Those are most likely the only ones which coins have any value.

For example, after a quick scroll on Electrum's repo fork list, I've found:

electrum-pivx
electrum-drk
electrum-stratis
electrum-bca
electrum-smart

And we can't even know which ones are legit or just a fake malware-wallet.

Yes there have been cases of what seemed to be genuine forks on github but later revealed to be fake, full of malware which stole crypto.

People need to be very careful about what software they download

1,792 Fork we can saw many list are forked

those forks are not all new projects, they are basically other contributing developers who "copy" the code to edit it in their own fork then make a pull request on original repository. for example if you wanted to add something to Electrum, fix a bug,... you "fork" it first to create a copy, then do the changes and then open a pull request for merging the changes into original project.
for example one of those forks belongs to me, when i wanted to fix a bug with base58 decoding of private key during import.

Yes the number includes modifications to repos.

The real number of specific coin electrum wallet versions are far, far less.
