It's not as bad as I though it would be. Android can take 6000 simultaneous connections. Then it's all about how fast we can process the incoming events. And since the outbox just brings the data from each author, it becomes quite lean.

Just talking shit about the lack of UTXO ownership in Cashu. Great project though.

I can see what you're doing, its just very misleading. you of course need to own a UTXO to create a funding transaction. then you pivoted to "utxos don't exist on lightning" when were were talking about utxo ownership. great straw man tactic to confuse people though.
zero motivation to convince you, I wasn’t even having a conversation with you in the first place. go fight with someone else.

whatever man, generally lying to people about tech is not a good look, you are starting to sound like a scammer.
it has been like this ever since cashu calling them instant and “trustless”, misrepresenting their properties, replacement for LN, while proof-of-reserves was going to come soon

its really offputting. I like the tech and I was thinking abou using it for things like poker chips, but I'm not a fan of liars and i'm getting huge shitcoin vibes from most cashu people i interact with. maybe I'll just stick to lightning dev.
When do you understand that I don’t care what you think of me?

I need to integrated my Luvstr dating app with my Alby hub ? Do you have experienced or maybe with cashu ? @jb55 what do you think ?
I have also told calle early on before this started, to change protocol design decisions. right now it is a hack on top of a hack which makes me unwilling to touch it for example, instead of a general script system, there is a dedicated type for each use case, even though back in 2023 I told them this was a bad idea nutzaps for example are inherently worse as well, either the receiver has to pay the cost of retrieving the sats from the sender’s mint (which can refuse) while saying they did a valid zap, or the sender has to swap between mints (why not just use LN?)

ah yeah I ran into the same issue trying to think about how I would implement ecash payment handling for lmzap i still think it might be a nice option for privacy conscious services if the users only other option is custodial lightning. its more of a burden for the merchant IMO due to the mint swap and finality issues.
I think a protocol for service credits handling that is designed only for that purpose is infinitely more valuable
Who cares about UTXO ownership in Cashu? It’s not like you’re going to use it for cold storage. It’s a niche technology whose uses are emergent. Use it for what it’s good for.
