in that case I can't think of a reason to use cashu
Discussion
I’m thinking of a world where everyone switches to cashu wallets in their clients
yeah but you still need lightning to pay from mint to mint so why not just use your node directly since the cashu ecash is just a wrapper around your lightning node at that point. That's how it seems to me anyway
NWC makes using your own nodeceasy I don't think that's going away 🤷♂️
Also interested in knowing why this might be useful 🤔
I don’t disagree but many clients are moving away from nwc and just using cashu
I'd be interested to look into these clients. any links? I'll run cashu if I have to buy that sounds annoying as f
but*
Seems like olas is one?
hmm nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft is this true lol
Nope
ndk-wallet (what Olas uses) implements paying to and from cashu, NWC, webln.
You can pay from NWC to someone that doesn’t have Lightning enabled, or pay someone from your cashu wallet to someone that doesn’t have nutzaps enabled.
Awesome. I use my own LND node plus self hosted alby hub NWC for zaps and really love the UX of it. I hope this doesn't change
Of course it won't! I'm continuously making improvements in the NWC flow!
And amazing that you do this!!! The cashu approach is just a recognition that the vast majority of people won't setup an LSP, handle NWC tokens, and do all these things, specially not at first.
Yeah, makes sense. Sounds good!
Ain’t gonna happen
