i feel like bolt12 invoice_requests solve most of the problems ecash is trying to solve? and it's done directly over lightning.

Nostr-based static CLINK Offers, now with Blinded Paths on LND
Per an excellent question about CLINK Offers privacy vs. that of Bolt12, I took a few minutes this morning to rough-in support for blinded paths in our reference server and wallet.
You can see here that the CLINK static offer code is fetching invoices over nostr, not dodgy onion messages, that leverage these blinded paths.
The Bolt12 astroturf crowd has long lied about its privacy advantages as blinded paths exist outside of it's context.
If you've been waiting for LND to finish implementing Bolt12 to use this privacy feature with static offers, you're now way ahead of the game as CLINK Offers are a far more flexible, performant, reliable, and web-friendly alternative.
