If the node never comes up again, there is no way to reclaim it other than asking the mint operator to reimburse you.

Will this be improved in the future ? or is this not possible
In case someone holding your funds becomes unreachable, how do we improve this?
The protocol is a very young trusted system in its development phase. Mints are also not professionally managed at the moment and may go down temporarily or have other issues.
I strongly advice to exercise caution and only use it with small amounts for experimental or educational purposes.
Yeah I mean at the protocol side not the wallet one iforgot to mention this , my fault
.
What if ..
I use only the mint for myself creating cashu token without participants do i gain also little bit more anonymity than i use an normal lightning wallet like wos,phoenix.
