The BCCAPI (Bitcoin Client API) is a java library designed for making secure light-weight bitcoin clients. The BCCAPI connects to a server that holds the block chain, and which tracks the client’s wallet balance. The server only has knowledge of the clients public keys, and is in no position to spend funds owned by the client’s wallet.

Features include:
* Deterministic private keys, based on seed file.
* Only the seed file needs to get backed up, or generated from a passphrase.
* Send/receive Bitcoins
* Low bandwidth
* Low CPU usage
* Server does not have your private keys and is in no position to spend your coins
* Allows spending of unconfirmed-change-sent-back-to-self like the Satoshi Client
* Open source
* Free service, running on donations

Simply put the API is designed for making it easy to create light-weight secure Bitcoin wallets for handheld devices.
