Weekend project: Cashu Lightning gateway. Needed: Cashu wallet for gateway, Lightning Steps: - user to gateway: yo! would you pay this LN invoice for me? - gateway: sure, gibbs HTLC ecash - checks if HTLC has same hash as LN invoice - if so, pays LN - everybody happy

I've increased my Lightning node's fees to 10000 ppm because I'm not going to route any HTLCs during the insane congestion everyone is expecting and risk having to pay for force closes. Nope, I'm going to stay put.

I'm going to try to buy drinks on mainnet with this tonight at the halving party. Wish me luck. View quoted note →

Congratulations to all Australian Bitcoiners for reaching the halving before everyone else.

Good questions. GM ✨

Code is speech.

Bitcoin mining pools should issue rewards in ecash so that participants can mine without an account and remain private. Miners can withdraw their ecash balance to Lightning or on-chain whenever they feel like it. Nobody needs to know who you are and how much you've earned while mining. This is more important than most people realize.

This is the second-best form of fiat that exists, after physical cash. Change my mind. View quoted note →

Wow! I see Cashu tokens in my @primal inbox! Look at that beautiful modal. Great job guys 🧡

Cashu USD ecash. Be your own Tether. All you'll need to run this permissionlessly is a Bitcoin Lightning node. Decentralize fucking everything, anon.

A public square that is owned by a corporation isn't a public square, it's a mall.

Ride or die 🤘

I gave an invited talk about the Cashu protocl to the current Btrust cohort, an African NGO for training the next generation of Bitcoin developers. I'm excited to see some of the participants pick up Bitcoin and Ecash projects. Let's go!
