The only part I don’t understand about cashu, if it runs on lightning, why not just use lightning?

Question comes from a lack of understanding really, not skepticism.

That's like asking "Why do people use wallet of satoshi if they could run a lightning node"

Not really, more like, why use cashu if I can use WoS?

Cashu is a better way to build custodians.

So it helps the devs not the users?

it give you privacy and uncensorability and other things: cashu.space

The offline part might be the most interesting in cashu.

The mint can't see your wallet, can't stop you sending the tokens. That's the cool part.

What if they're both the cool parts?

Do you ever see a day when blind signature is used in a decentralised system compare to federation &/or custodian
