+      Electrum-LTC is a simple, but powerful Litecoin wallet. A twelve-word
+      security passphrase (or “seed”) leaves intruders stranded and your peace
+      of mind intact. Keep it on paper, or in your head... and never worry
+      about losing your litecoins to theft or hardware failure. No waiting, no
+      lengthy blockchain downloads and no syncing to the network.
