If you're looking for a light client (one that doesn't download the blockchain) my personal reccommendation is electrum.
Try Electrum instead of Armory. It's not supposed to be as much of a memory hog.
Hi guys,
I currently have just over 4 bitcoins. They are stored on my online laptop (win8). I have Bitcoin Core installed and downloaded Armory. I created a paper backup using armory.
Of course I want my bitcoins to be secure (who wouldn't) but I don't have an offline computer, I have USB sticks but I find all this online/ offline really complicated.
Basically I want to be able to use my bitcoin daily. I was looking to renew some domains using Namecheap with btc but they have a QR code that you are supposed to scan.
I wanted to use Mycelium to do that but it's taking forever for armory to get ready so I can transfer the bitcoins to mycelium.
Sorry for rambling but this is what I want.
A simple solution for storing the BTC on my laptop. It should be lightweight, secure and not download the whole blockchain. Armory also slowed down my PC i7 processor as well. When I decide I want to buy something I should be able to use it within seconds.
Thanks
