Project for a friend 😁
Excited to announce the ECASH OpenAI API client! There's still a lot to be done, contributions are welcome 🙏
Discussion
I have been using this e-cash based LLM provider since two days now and I'm not switching back to API keys that are issued by a counterparty.
Steps:
1. An e-cash wallet that runs on your local machine provides an API key that you can use in cursor/roo code.
2. Your wallet receives the LLM requests, removes the API key and puts ecash in the request instead.
3. The LLM aggregator redeems the e-cash, processes the request and returns the change along with the response from the LLM.
Spending money has never been this much fun!
docker compose up -d --build
LLM aggregator that supports e-cash: https://ecash.otrta.io
this is awesome! it's such a good use case
Instant follow! 🫡
Solid project. The design is quite similar to the Keychat AI bot's approach.
"The Bitcoin network's limitation of 1 satoshi as the smallest transaction unit creates challenges for micropayments in AI services. This constraint particularly affects high-volume, low-cost AI API calls where transaction amounts are often fractions of a satoshi."
Very interesting! To increase precision (and allow setting lower tx fees), did you consider using an msat keyset with nutshell instead of sat?
cdk-mint also supports msat
Saw it but didn't really have the knowledge and capacity to setup all those technologies together ..
Was really happy when I found nutshell to use via API (currently the API ist not supported anymore 🙈) so an older version is used!
There still a lot to do ..
Super job 🤝😍
