Does anybody want to test this out? With this feature, you can mint USD-pegged ecash with your LNMarkets account as a back-end. When a user decides to mint ecash, they will be required to pay a Lightning Network invoice equivalent to the US dollar amount in satoshis. As for redemption, the user provides a Lightning Network invoice, and the minting system fetches the current exchange rate from LNMarkets' futures ticker. It then calculates the corresponding US dollar ecash value for the payment quote. Error messages are a bit all over the place. The documentation itself is not very clear about them, either. I will work to improve them.

Imagine you could run a USD ecash mint without needing to go through any KYC. Now that would be something... ;)

There is a lot of censorship going on in the UK right now. Social Media companies are being forced to delete posts, deplatform accounts which are deemed to be spreading "misinformation" and "hate speech". Of course the UK government is the self appointed Ministry of Truth. If you are an Englishman, please advise your fellow citizens to join Nostr. We should be using this platform to return people their voices, other than shitposting/cringeposting and being nerds. Personally, I am in of the opinion that western governments have become too big and wield way too much influence for the level of competence they display. We need to get it through people's head that Bitcoin is how you defund these parasites with dictatorial aspirations.
