 The cashu wallet integration in iris.to is brilliant. Fast, easy, private. Sure, cashu requires entrusting a few sats in the mint operator(s); similar to trusting network operators when loading pre-paid cards.

 I'm a noob, and this made me make my first ecash transaction 🫡🔥🚀. I used the minibits Android app to send some to my iris newly created ecash/lightning wallet.  
 *some sats 
 Too bad minibits wallet does not yet support animated qr code. I'd love to receive some ecash https://image.nostr.build/ce27ade246b29c29a7830ae90821923ce7f5d3bd064d0e0bbbc9c92b27edf335.jpg
 
 New v4 ecash encoding format is more efficient, so it fits more ecash into standard QR code.

I prioritize that over the animated codes, because they are much less interoperable (can't be scanned easily with standard readers etc).

Will see how far we can get with that, if there will be the need I'll implement animated ones. 
 Good strategy indeed 🔥🚀 when is the roll out of the V4 ecash encoding format then ? ;-)
Thanks so much for bearing with me, it s fun testing this... I understood it is enhanced privacy for lightning fast payments, isn't it? Could I run my own cashu mint on umbrel? Would that be technically possible? 
 v4 format is now default in new Minibits release.

To run your owm mint, check cashubtc/nutshell om github. 
 MINT (own or trusted one for big amount) 
 MINT - (own or trusted one)
WALLET - can be many

 Don't trust, verify , right?:-) 
 It looks like I have a token pending there? Does it mean I should not trust minibits ?;-) nostr:nprofile1qqs9pk20ctv9srrg9vr354p03v0rrgsqkpggh2u45va77zz4mu5p6ccpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz9thwden5te0dehhxarj9ehhsarj9ejx2a30qyg8wumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnddakj7xph5zr https://image.nostr.build/3a6dfa69997c14991511f63baecd2019626a0645fe7180a26de466701e08a37d.jpg
