Layers build on top of other layers. If you redefine the word 'layer' to mean only building on top of the first layer then you have neutered the entire concept and built a cage for your own thoughts. Cashu is a layer three BECAUSE it doesn't have unilateral exit. People who say otherwise are abusing the common language to fight a battle of ideas. You can simply not listen to them.

Cake wallet supports Coinbase's captured platform and tokenized stocks. Why? When will they support ecash? View quoted note →

this is the most unhelpful error message i can imagine 1) it's wrong, my internet connection is fine 2) no log message 3) no clue where the problem originated 4) no hints about where to look 5) the only apparent hint is another false lead

fees are the killer use case for ecash View quoted note →

my least favorite part of air travel is right before takeoff when passengers are forced to inhale jet engine exhaust vented into the cabin why do they do this?

I didn't share my details in time to make it in the post but I did a ton of work deploying and polishing Hashpool and eHash: - experimented with nostr as a bitcoin transaction transport layer. Test environment: https://github.com/vnprc/tx-relay-playground. Rust crate:

crates.io: Rust Package Registry

crates.io serves as a central registry for sharing crates, which are packages or libraries written in Rust that you can use to enhance your projects

- experimented with nostr and cashu payment forwarding - deployed Hashpool to testnet https://pool.hashpool.dev https://proxy.hashpool.dev - proposed two new new cashu NUT specs: https://github.com/cashubtc/nuts/pull/292 and https://github.com/cashubtc/nuts/pull/293 - I think most importantly, I leveled up my vibe skills with some very large behind the scenes refactors. I extracted the ehash logic into dedicated rust crates and created 4 new roles to collect stats and serve web pages. The new architecture will be pivotal in turning SRI into a self-hostable service and preparing the repo to transition into a mining pool development kit. View article →
