cashu .me ecash wallet for bitcoin – not available on any app store

Bitcoin price will probably just go up forever, slowly chugging upwards, nothing stops this train. Sit back and enjoy. The rest, however, is all in our hands. Apps, integrations, education, on and off ramps, protocols, layers. All that needs to be built. By us.

we can’t afford to be neutral on a moving train

"ecash is digital azteco" is something I would 100% tweet if I could

anyone who's still able to go on twitter is a security cuck

welcome back to nostr, security-conscious bitcoiner with a security key who just got locked out of X 🙌

bitchat (occupy wall st., 2011)

I kind of love how X just locked me out because of their security key rotation and even though I tried on 2 devices and it says "Success!", it won't let me log in anymore. Cleansing 🧼

IP level privacy is something we can't fully address in Cashu: Tor would be best but doesn't work in browsers. VPNs are great but the user needs to get one by themselves. OHTTP is a good compromise which we're adding. The best part about ecash however is that as the payer / customer in the vast majority of cases you remain fully offline when you make the payment. The merchant needs to talk to the mint (can use Tor, VPN, OHTTP) but the vast majority (customers) don't talk to the mint while making a payment. View quoted note →
