Proprietary Software

Proprietary software does not allow inspection of the sourcecode by users. These Bitcoin clients keep it hidden. This means users cannot examine how the program operates, and must trust the vendor to provide an authentic program. Users may be willing to eschew this security risk for any convenience and simplicity brought by placing responsibility with a vendor, instead of using Free Software.

Website Frontends

These websites act like banks holding funds on your behalf. They often provide convenience and ease of use, at the expense of security. You are always trusting the operators of these sites. Many such sites have been compromised before, so users are advised to do their due diligence.

This class of clients usually runs on all platforms, and only requires a web browser to operate them.
