ecash (both cashu and fedimint) is by far what i’m most excited about flying back from bitcoin atlantis
chaumium ecash failed in the 80s bc we tried to build it on top of fiat and tradfi banks. on top of bitcoin and lightning it has the potential to absolutely crush scaling bitcoin payments and user privacy
Ecash is not a currency. It's a way to replace custodial ledgers by bearer asset tokens that respect your privacy.
It's a technology with 40 years of research and thousands of peer-reviewed papers.
It always sucked and never cought on because it relied on banks. Now we can build it open-source on Bitcoin.
