It's important to realize that ecash solutions will not only be "general use wallets" that can pay for anything, send money to friends, or buy a coffee.
Ecash systems will also be closed systems for media subscriptions, content monetization, VPN credits, paywalls, and ads.
Not as money, but as credit tokens. The web is huge.
Wait until you realize that a nostr event is also a kind of ecash bearer token
Web is weird 💜
It is ideal for those close systems in a way "crypto" would never be.
Yes, I know an example of a company and product where the question was "should we use a privacy shitcoin or Cashu" and they decided it's going to be Cashu.
But will the norm be ecash based on fiat pennies or satoshis or something else?
That literally depends on whether Bitcoin will win. Ecash is best on Bitcoin but in the end it's just an accounting method for already existing assets.
Ecash should also exist for fiat but fiat is full of gatekeepers.
