Calle explained very well in this one

sure they're like little community banks where if you give them bitcoin they'll give you the equivalent in spending tokens that are completely anonymous. "chaumian mints" just refers to the cryptography used that allows the mint to verify the transaction without having to know the amount. it's akin to meatworld cash technology, not long term savings technology.
