CORRECTION: this was my misunderstanding. enuts indeed creates ecash tokens for you upon LN deposit in 1 step. i mistakenly thought it didn’t bc in the payment flow there’s a “create token” step but my understanding now is that it this is more of a ecash token selection step (and maybe if you don’t have the right denominations in your wallet you’d break up a bigger token to smaller tokens so there can be a create token process interacting with the mint but that’s not a necessity).

i haven't used it much as a daily driver yet so can't say much but i love the principles behind it and the product iteration. will share more as i start using it!

i like how mutiny calls it “esats” instead of “ecash”. it makes it very clear from a upfront terminology point of view what the distinction of this new generation of ecash is from attempts of the past: it’s backed by sats instead of fiat.

okay let me play around with fedimint ecash on mutiny and see if the UX is different there!

doesn't enuts work in this way? where i send it sats via LN but it doesn't issue ecash tokens in return immediately and i have to speficially mint ecash tokens if I want to send them to you?

personally i feel cashu would be easier to understand if the default UX was that all sats sent to the mint are immediately issued as ecash tokens back to me rather than that being a separate step at payment time

yeah in general the blow up is an issue (every like becomes it's own notification row) but it's extra worse when you get tagged in someone elses' note and your own notifications get blown out by that notes' notifications

ecash noob question: even if theoretically ecash transactions are private, in practice given apps like enuts don't push you to create ecash tokens ahead of time and the moment of token creation (mint) is coupled with the payment moment (burn) doesn't the mint operator have pretty good visibility into who paid whom?

top UX struggle w/ primal right now for me:

if someone tags me on a note and it goes viral i have no way of not getting notifications on that and it basically makes my personal notifications unfollowable for a while until that note dies down

update: coinbase custody now supports sending to taproot (bech32m) addresses!

not rolled out to the retail coinbase app yet but soon.

once coinbase graduates from this list then it's really just binance we need to get onboard?
