I've built a thing: The Cashu mint Round Robin auditor An app that perpetually monitors a list of mints by randomly sending Lightning payments between them. Forever. The sats go in a circle until all is lost to fees or rugs. If a mint fails to pay an invoice, it is marked with a scary red label. You can donate Ecash from any mint to add it to the list of audited mints! image

Sounds like a good idea Could someone just start a mint to steal the sats? Then do it over and over again?
This is very cool! I'm curious if the length of time between deposit and withdrawal can be gamed on the mint side. Are the durations random? If a mint can accurately predict which payments are part of the round robin they could feasibly protect against that while still running a ponzi on users.

I'd probably get more sats saying GM on nostr. It would be easier too

Would the mints be able to tell that it’s an auditors txn and pay it to get the all ok ?

Sorry... but what's Cashu? A lightning app as you send lightning?
