ecash has many advantages, and what interests me the most are its privacy and programmability.
1. Just noticed nostr:npub1tm99pgz2lth724jeld6gzz6zv48zy6xp4n9xu5uqrwvx9km54qaqkkxn72 added Cashu support
I’m sure nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg had something to do with it 😎
2. Minor typo I noticed (see image) “form” should be “from”
3. First time Cashu user…I assume I can convert Sats to eCash by: Receive > Deposit eCash (pay Lightening invoice)
So I can put some eCash in my Cashu wallet that way?
4. Lastly, is the reason I’d want to use eCash over sats via Lightening because:
A. Privacy
B. Cheaper fees on Cashu vs Lightening?

Discussion
Can you expand on the programability aspect? Why would I want my cash to be programble or programmed?
For example, Cashu ecash supports P2PK. Based on this nut protocol, you can specify sending ecash to a particular npub, ensuring that no one else can claim it. Additionally, you can set a lock time, after which it can no longer be claimed.
