Electrum-server for the Electrum client

Features

The server uses a bitcoind and bitcoin-abe or a leveldb backend.
The server code is open source. Anyone can run a server, removing single points of failure concerns.
The server knows which set of Bitcoin addresses belong to the same wallet, which might raise concerns about anonymity. However, it should be possible to write clients capable of using several servers.

To install and run a pruning server (easiest setup) see README.leveldb
Install bitcoin-abe.
Install jsonrpclib.
Launch the server: nohup python -u server.py > /var/log/electrum.log & or use the included start script.

See the included HOWTO.md for greater detail on the installation process.

Do not run bitcoin-abe and electrum-server simultaneously, because they will both try to update the database.

If you want bitcoin-abe to be available on your website, run it with the --no-update option.

If you upgrade abe, you might need to update the database. In the abe directory, type:

python -m Abe.abe --config=abe.conf --upgrade
