Very neutral discussion of m-of-n transactions and a shout-out to Bitrated.

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Advertised sites are not endorsed by the Bitcoin Forum. They may be unsafe, untrustworthy, or illegal in your jurisdiction.

Indeed it is neutral article and this a lit bit surprised me cause sources like economist.com usually write incredibly extreme things and far from reality about Bitcoin
