I love more the concept of Cashu and I also I do with the concept of a network of mints. What

I’m not sure or convinced is with the narrative fedimints people have

I don’t think there will exist “neighborhood, family or tribe” federations as a significant thing. Keeping your node and mint up and running so everyone can use is a big responsibility

So I think there will rather be “big professional federations”.. imagine if RSK for instance would decide to use their same federated security for the side chain but now to also run a mint and port tokens from the sidechain into programable tokens in the mint or things like that

But small mints I’m not convinced. I would want to own a node and a mint for family and friend and then have an electricity problem or a latency issue leaving everybody blocked

In addition, the bigger the federation is the bigger the economic activity and services within so it’ll become more attractive to be in a mint where you can do lots of things vs in a small federation where you basically need to move in and out every time
