So the channel management is outsourced to the runner of the mint, yea?
In your example is your minibits and Zeus pointed to the same mint?
Trying out taking Merchant payments using nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 Cashu Alpha + Square Terminal 🥜🔥⚡️
Turned on cashu in Zeus, added mint, created order in Square, order loaded in Zeus, hit pay in Zeus.
Opened up my Minibits wallet, scanned the LN invoice. Payment sent.
I received payment into the cashu wallet in Zeus.
Zero channel management.
Immediate payment.
Inventory pulled.
Customer texted receipt.
This is the future of Merchant payments.

I just happened to use my minibits as a test wallet to pay the order.
Any lightning wallet can pay the Zeus ln invoice order.
The mint in Zeus is selected by the user.
I think I understand. I am wondering if zeus (receiver side) and minibits (payment side) are pointed to the same mint as that would be an e-cash payment within the same mint, i.e. no transaction going over lightning. Vs, if they were different mints, then there would be a lightning transaction between the two mints. (If that makes sense).
That would be correct. That is exactly how cashu works.
The payment is over lightning, but yes the channel is taken care of by the mint because we were accepting cashu.
