We will have to punch through a few minor but breaking changes in the Cashu protocol before this baby grows up. It will be challenging to coordinate the upgrades in multiple implementations but the pain will be worth it.

E-paper ecash?
"I prefer money that I can touch and hold in my hands"
Ok boomer. Paper ecash. Denominated in Bitcoin.


When a dev posts "Test" you know that something is brewing.
I am tired of talking about inflation and sound money.
Relentless ecash development will continue until morale deteriorates 🫡
Privacy and censorship resistance are two sides of the same coin.
Chaumian mints are so privacy-preserving that censorship is practically impossible.
"As we stride into an era increasingly concerned with digital privacy, ecash is experiencing a renaissance, primarily due to our discovery of Bitcoin as the foundational money layer for the internet."
