Yes*

*cashu is just a protocol, just like lightning. Litecoin was the first to use the lightning protocol; so anyone can take the cashu protocol and use it for whatever coin they want

very easy to find out if the mint is scamming you; just simply try to spend that mints cashu tokens to a lightning invoice

If it melts, confirmed; the mint has the money they said they did

If it does not melt (convert from cashu->⚡), then the mint is a scam, & we blacklist the mint publicly

Bitcoinmints.com & cashumints.space are places to view mints to select from with rankings.

audit.8333.space is a mint auditing site, showing which mints have the funds they say they do, and who doesn't. Works great.

Cashu.space is general FAQ site to learn more.

Hope this information helps
