Mints could issue almost anything desirable as Ecash.

And Minibits Wallet is ready to handle it.

Biggest upgrade so far with currency units support and related major UX and navigation revamp is now out!

Yes! #LFG

Looks great. Is there a way to swap eCash between mints without going through lightning?

No, Lightning is what connects mints together

In Cashu transaction between mints always includes Lightning.

Of course two-step process (creating an invoice on one mint and paying it from another) can be streamlined by the UX, some wallets do that.

When other than sats mint take off, I'll add it as well so there it good ux for "exchange" transaction.

Wonder if you can do an eCash atomic swap ...

BTW, I have been meaning to ask if you have any information to read about managing more than mint per wallet? Is that a possibility? 🤔

Yes, wallet supports multiple mints. Jus go to Settings > Manage mints to add some or scan mint URL encoded as QR code from main screen.

Ohh I see!

Last but not least, you can grab your own custom Minibits Wallet address instead of random one for a small donation.

You'll receive zaps or any Lightning payments as well as Ecash encrypted, over Nostr network. Grab one, put it on your Nostr profile and let the sats flow!

Fair to say, there are losses as well - this version had to drop support to connect to the mints using Tor daemon. Tor library for react native is not maintained and could not be incorporated into the build. If anybody could take this, we'll put it back.

Your Lightning address is now one tap away from Wallet screen. Transactions moved to their own bottom tab.

Transaction screens now show related mint in header, with whole UI improved along the way.

Wallet is now organized by currency units, not by mints. Last visited unit screen is remembered and shown on next start.

This makes wallet ready for upcoming multi-mint payments, where a payment amount could be funded by more then a single mint.

Сегодня я заминтил свой первый ecash-bitcoin-stable-dollar. Я понятия не имею, кто управляет минтом stablenut.umint.cash. Нет никаких гарантий, что я получу что-то обратно, так что это примерно так же надёжно, как этот ваш Tether.

I lost my wallet after updating and now I can't recover. What should I do?

So how to I send/receive USD?

You need to add a mint that issues USD ecash. Minibits mint does not.

When I add https://stablenut.umint.cash, minibits adds the unit as btc and not USD. I then can't receive USD.

Which Minibits version are you at? Check in developer options.

Thank you for your great development

Here's an interesting idea:

What if small businesses issued e-cash in-store credit? It could be in terms of "hours of labor" or a specific good or service. This would make it exchangeable to other users, while technically not inflating the currency. This could also allow a small network of businesses and individuals* to trade their goods and services** without the need for a more widely accepted currency. It's putting trust in neighbors, again. Heck! You could issue stocks in e-cash!

* the first thought I had was farmers' markets and very small businesses

** like the bread credits referenced in nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a's recent video

Hey I just got rugged on your latest release. I'm not the only one this has happened to. The seed words seem fine.

Also my profile was lost scessio.plebis@minibits.cash

You show it as available

Updated again this morning. Something odd is happening.

This looks really bad, sorry for troubles.

Please get todays update and add your mints again and head to Backup > Local recovery tool. If you have local backup, tap Recover to wallet.

I can see a balance now (not the one I was expecting) but still something wrong.

Does any of available options (proofs, tokens, reocvery) work for you?

No. It worked on enuts. I got 10k back - was expecting 12k. No big deal.

When I tried the recovery on minibits it shows zero in my wallet though it has the same seed.

Also as mentioned my personalised address disappeared.

Hi, I'll check the profile name on the server and dm you steps how to get it back.

I updated to the recent release .. everything seemed fine.

I updated again from within the app .. mints were lost, I had 3 now 0, and MiniBits wallet address has reset to a random address (previously I donated for a unique address).

I updated a second time from within the app .. mints were again lost , I had 1 setup, and MiniBits wallet address has reset again to yet another random address.

Also, new seedphrases are generated every time I update .. 😕

That should definitely not be the case. I suggest to reinstall the wallet and recover from original seed.

I love this!!

After latest update no more balance from minibits.cash and seed word backup also not working....any ideas how to recover?

Hi, sorry for troubles. Please go to Backup and recovery > Recovery tool.

If you see backup of your ecash, try to recover them back to wallet or copy them as encoded token to recover in another wallet.

If not, dm me, we'll sort it out.

I'm having the same issue
