Isn't ecash super simple? I looked at their code a while back and I thought it was a simple way to mint things and control "gift cards" while giving the operator some good security against double spend. After all, any double spend will be on you to fund.

I have trust issues when it comes to code and money. I feel confident I can write a transactional system in a core-lightning plugin that would handle this without importing some codebase with tons of features I don't need. it basically comes down to trusting their coding ability vs mine. I'm not going to blindly trust that for something so important. I will review the code and see if it makes sense to use it for the redemption logic.

you could probably implement the core protocol in a couple days

Same but I only trust my code up to 6 months after I have written it. Once it's not fresh in my mind, I start doubting the thing is actually doing what I wanted. 😅
