I have a question when I send money into #minibits is that auto converted to #ecash or do I have to and if so when I send a zap or any other lightning based transaction does it go to the Mint first and is converted or does it depend on the user having an #ecash wallet

#asknostr

do you see the token above?

oh yeah

here

its ecash

"mint a token"?

what exactly did it say?

Its auto converted to ecash, also called 'minting'

If you send your freshly minted ecash to another minibits user (like me) you will send ecash (specifically a cashu token), not lightning*.

If you choose to pay a lightning invoice, not a minibits mint, you will auto convert your ecash to lightning, also called 'melting'

A bit technical below👇

*you can pay a minibits lightning invoice from your minibits ecash wallet (like zapping me, my minibits lightning@address), which you have already minted into ecash. If you did this, you would be melting ecash to the minibits lightning node, crediting my account.

- since its the same lightning node (from you to me), on the node it looks like the node just paid itself

This is why ecash is so powerful; minibits node just saw a 'self-pay', but it has no idea which user paid which other user, even if they wanted to know.

So so cool.

Any lightning sent to Minibits goes to your active mint where it's held as ecash. When you send lightning from Minibits, it internally converts the required sats from ecash to lightning before sending. It's a unique system that I trust, but don't like how it works with multiple mints. That's why I only keep one active mint. If someone gives me ecash from a different mint, I'll usually keep that new mint active, but if it's a large sum or I anticipate holding it for a long time, I'll send it to Cashu and swap it to the mint I use in Minibits so I'm only dealing with that one mint.

Hi Nostr

Welp. I bet most people will accept this.

we're so lucky Elon saved free speech for only 8 bucks a month, it was probably one of the most important events in American history

Yep! But usually with solo mining, a winner's hashrate is much higher.

We're going to be mass-importing all of the off-copyright titles we can find and format, as well. But only after we get this first release done.

The world is full of free books. Let's put them on Nostr.

Anyone interested in helping, can go ahead and start uploading to thecitadel.nostr1.com with the ebook utility.
