Cashu is seriously impressive. If you’re building anything Lightning-related, definitely consider using Cashu. It’s super versatile & really easy to work with. Minting and melting are literally just two simple API calls each, that’s it. You can even send payments directly to Nostr public keys, nutstash.app already supports that & NWC with budget limits. It’s genuinely solid work. There’s so much potential here, and I think we’re just scratching the surface.

Totally agree—Cashu is a game changer for Lightning devs. The API is dead simple, and the Nostr integration is already unlocking awesome use cases. Feels like we’re still early on something big. If you vibe with this, hit me with a zap!
Yup, planning on adding it at some point on my end, especially sending to an npub / default to have sent mints to recepients being time-locked to npubs.
It's incredibly lightweight. Any app or site that has "points" could implement a cashu wallet instead!

Adding an ecash wallet to any app is dead simple; signal could do it easily and just **not** run their own mint. So could twitter, gmail, your bank apps, etc.

Appreciate it! At the moment, we’re focused on something that requires a web designer, but down the line, we’ll definitely need graphic design help as well. I’ll keep you in the loop.
Yeah I believe much #ecash projects need proper PR designs. Logo’s/ (social) media images for marketing etc. like for example the Macadamia iPhone app. Character en a better logo. image
