oh and it works offline. how would you call digital cash that works offline without being "disingenuous"?

this post reads to me like a "it feels wrong" without any substance. let me know when you have a specific question.

I do know some of the history of ecash, that doesn't mean calling it "cash" is good branding.

So here's my specific question: Is it possible for me double spend cashu tokens that I gave someone while offline?

no, the receiver reissues the token when they receive it preventing you from double spending

Can you explain to me (or point me to the details) of how the tokens are reissued? I thought to swap you have to connect to the mint? Or is reissuing different from swapping?

yes the receiver has to be online to prevent the double spend of the Bitcoin iou. but we're not even talking about Bitcoin at this point, which is why it's misleading.

Ok, I kinda wanted to be wrong about this but that's what I understood from the protocol docs. I thought calle was just overselling it but their messages in this thread feel downright deceptive.
