dont amplify this bs narrative
he wrote mastering bitcoin so years later he was asked, as a decentralized computing expert, to coauthor the mastering ethereum book
for maxis this is heresey, but andreas is still one of the sanest voices in the chaos of technical discussion about bitcoin
UNO-REVERSE!
this is your prompt to learn something new human, ideally offline and using those oh-so-special opposible thumbs you got

nothing to see here

a new IoT guillotine hits the market boys!
kinda sad to see its just an AI video
Before #Bitcoin, there was #Ecash.
David Chaum’s #Digicash, built on blind signatures, was one of the first serious attempts at true digital cash. At one point, there were even rumours that Microsoft and Visa were seriously interested, and several Cypherpunks went to work at Digicash to help push the tech forward.
But Ecash never really went mainstream.
Usage stayed low. Some said there wasn’t enough demand for digital cash yet. Others felt Chaum didn’t have the business skills to scale it into the wider financial world.
By 1997, after leadership changes and a move to Silicon Valley, Digicash filed for bankruptcy.
Still, its impact was huge.
It proved to a whole generation of hackers, cryptographers, and privacy activists that digital cash was technically possible. The idea worked – it just needed a different architecture and a different moment in time. Bitcoin would eventually be both.
We captured this moment in The History of Bitcoin by Smashtoshi with the artwork:
“SEEING THE VALUE OF BLIND SIGNATURES” by Jack Kaido (thisjackkaido).
It appears in the Collector’s Book and on our interactive timeline.

I have enjoyed a lot this time.
Privacy hills. Simply great.

the digital mountains await, dear cypherpunk
fair enough, we sit on different sides of the fence on this one kidwarp
(hug)
bad take and fundentally incorrect
assesment and fixing take time, rollouts even longer, if the bug is protocol level all clients and mints would need to patch before disclosure. Sure the 'fix' in this process may be immediate but the rollout and post-patch assessment is very important and takes time.
immediate disclosure benfits only skriptkiddies and malicious actors. These aren't new ideas, we stand on the shoulders of cybersecurity wizards and years of research on how to best innoculate a in-production coding project from bugs and potential exploits.
Carol could run a mint
Carol can instantly exit Alice's mint via LN
Unless Carol is offline, there is a little risk
If Carol doesn't trust Alice or any other mint operator, they can show an LN invoice and still get sats from the counterparty

copy autogenerated LN native address and paste that into your nostr client
want a custom address? you can send some sats to the dev to reserve a username@minibits . cash
your zaps will be sent via LN to the minibits mint and automagically minted into your ecash balance.

what do you mean by article? like a blog post?
I would suggest starting at cashu.space
and also checkout https://github.com/cashubtc/awesome-cashu
