I'm sorry about every user who has had issues with Cashu. We are doing our best to give disclaimers and warnings wherever we can. We are honest to you because we don't need to sell you anything. There is no product.
I can promise you, we're constantly improving. We're building Cashu because we believe in Bitcoin and want to see it in every corner of the world.
To minimize your personal risk:
- write down your seed phrase. You should be able to restore every sat you ever receive with your wallet if you keep your seed phrase secure.
- don't put money into random mints, only those that you trust. If you don't know a mint, avoid it.
- contribute. We're constantly improving the protocol and the libraries around it. Help wallet devs test and report bugs.
We're still at the beginning. We've literally invented an entire protocol from zero. There were no blueprints. We did all this without any investments or corporate structure. The number of devs is going up and we're getting better every day. Cashu is now probably the easiest way to onboard someone to Bitcoin.
Remember, people lost millions of BTC in the early days. However, every lost sat is one too much. If you experience issues with your Cashu mint, find the operator and let them know. If you can't do that, don't use their mint.
Stay safe anon.
