I got my #cashu wallet up and running. How do I connect it to my #nostr profile?

The way I see it here is that it wants me to create a new Nostr account.

Why is it dangerous to use my nsec?

It’s generally bad practice to paste your nsec anywhere, hence the warning. But if you want to redeem sats sent to your npub1fv…@npub.cash address in cashu.me, you’ll need to use your nsec. Otherwise, you can use the one that was randomly created for you.

Yes I agree pasting nsec is a mistake. (Never have). So there is a way to manually input your nsec?

It’s having your nsec inside another app that’s the issue I think, whether you paste or manually input it.

With the amethyst client ur also able to send ecash directly to an nostr user over an dm or message.

Amethyst is able to recognize the ecash token and some user could redeem it for his wallet
