ecash was literally MADE for gift cards!

run cashu mint, emit ecash for payment, disable /swap (ecash to ecash) endpoints, treat ecash as giftcards - and you have the best gift card system that currently exists on the market

I want the secured credit card idea of yours. Wen ser, wen

Is anyone hiring for this?

Is there a way to have them expire?

Based on what I’m reading, not really. Though in principle I think it should be doable. Seems like the current state of ecash is that theoretically the mint has an eternal IOU. I mean eventually it rugs, but having a countdown timer to rug on the nut would be a nice way of communicating that to holders.

You can expire them yes, using keyset epochs that rotate

Is a swap endpoint something I can look up? Struggling to find anything

Swap what?
