didn't take pay attention for a few days and turned into a de-facto mobile app dev. dangerous game.

This is wild: - make an account at coinos.io - get some ecash from their mint.coinos.io with cashu.me - on coinos, press receive > ecash - what you see is a cashu payment request - scan it with your cashu.me wallet, send ecash, watch it arrive *instantly*

gm mr @utxo the webmaster 🧑‍💻 could it be that your mint has soft-rugged? from

Thanks, I think I'm bullish enough.

iOS is so hard core... you need an apple developer account to run your own code on your own device

OMFG

Cashu is not an alternative to non-custodial Bitcoin. Nothing beats holding your own keys. Cashu Ecash is for custodial systems that respect user privacy, have better censorship resistance, and allow half-offline peer-to-peer payments that are instant. The days of corporate blockchains are over. They make no sense at all, they're centralized, and they are peak inefficient. Ecash beats all of that. It's fast, lightweight, and cheap. If you're running a service, you should consider integrating Ecash for your users. There are already dozens (!!!) of mints out there, run by organizations, companies, or communities. Among these companies are custodians, wallet providers, LSPs, and online shops. When will we see the first ecash in-game currency? Cashu now has native mobile wallet apps, headless server wallets, web wallets that work in the browser, and wallets for social media clients. We have mint implementations in Rust, Python, Golang, and like 5 other languages. We have tiny invisible wallets that live in web pages. We're working on an authentication scheme that balances operator control and user privacy as best as possible. You can decide who can use your mint. We have a dozen different open-source libraries and wallets that are improving every day. It's all yours. We're just getting started and the new year is going to be massive. After two years of crazy work on an entirely new protocol, things are starting to take shape. We have a vision which is to bring Bitcoin to every corner of the internet. Ecash will bring us there. Thank you everyone who believed in us, especially those who contribute to this project. Cashu has become a place where you can improve your coding skills, learn to collaborate, work on open-source, and do literal magic ✨ (cryptography). Next year is going to be massive 🫡🥜

Hallelujah, I've successfully compiled an APK for Cashu.me and it's going great so far. Camera ✅ Clipboard ✅ Vibration ✅ NFC ❌ Background sync ❌ Native Android web view wrapper around the PWA using Capacitor. Might just work for iOS, or might not, we're going to find out.

✨XMAS NUT MERGED: NUT-20 – Signature on Mint Quote This optional NUT specifies how to lock a mint quote to a user-defined public key and allow minting only with a valid signature. This improves the security of the Cashu protocol for bolt11, will improve bolt12 mint quotes that can be paid multiple times, and allows building trust-minimzed services that can mint tokens for its users without having access to the ecash (great for services like LNURL). Thank you @thesimplekid for learding the work on this!
