No, it’s more similar to a custodial lightning wallet and actually has lightning built in to claim real sats (smallest unit of bitcoin)

Huh?
Its a fork of lightning?
no it is separate from lightning, but works with lightning.
Is it a token?
there is no "Cashu Token" or offering or exchanges. it is federated custodians hosting lightning nodes. lightning bitcoin in > ecash > lightning bitcoin out.
Cashu.space is an ecash system built on lightning
it let's you anonymously transact through a custodian using blind-signature cryptography
a cashu faucet trickles cashu tokens, so plebs can try it for free
