There is a Monero Nostr client but its adoption seems to be limited, I’m not as apposed to other coins in the end it’s a user choice, but to say Monero has bigger adoption might be a stretch. Cashu is not Bitcoin in the sense that it doesn’t have the same custodial properties but its still sharing the same unit of account. So no, your statement needs work 😄 just see Cashu as layer 2.5 it extends lightning into a space where it can function slightly programmable on Bitcoin standard but you do sacrifice custody of it ( side note 99% of lightning address on Nostr are custodial wallet providers )

Thank you, but my point is: why is cashu considered "bitcoin" when it has all properties of a shitcoin? It is not bitcoin, you need to swap into it - like with every other shitcoin, it is not linked to any BTC, it is non custodial (which is completely against any bitcoin ethos), you have the mint rug risk etc. Monero and every other shitcoin is also denominated in BTC, when you look at the Shitcoin/BTC chart. For me it is just unfathomable that custodial long strings of text are considered "on a bitcoin standard" - it is like writing "i owe you 1000 sats" on a piece of paper and calling that a bitcoin scaling solution ;)
