bacon. I want nostr to make me bacon.
Cashu claims privacy and offline payments, yet with a spotty connection you can lose your funds unless you track down the custodian and beg for them back. The emperor has no clothes.
... ?
I opened minibits randomly and the payment was there. When the payment failed I was in a spotty service area. Is there anything you can do to make incomiong lightning transactions more fault tolerant?
Yes. I posted a reply to the root note to clarify this a little while before your reply.
👆 I would like to clarify that I haven't ever been "rugged" in the true sense of the word specifically by a cashu mint, but rather I have been rugged in many different ways over the the last few days: was robbed for around $10k in possessions including my laptop, a CC was skimmed at a gas station and the card was maxed out, having unknowingly maxed out cards added significant friction to travel and then while traveling, was "randomly" searched extensively and intrusively (4 times in one airport!). And to top the cake I was unable to pay with Bitcoin at a "Bitcoin Bar." Having LN transactions disappear indicates systemic issues with minibits infra, and feels like being rugged, but definitely isn't. Probably should have clarified or omitted the "rug" statement. Having a bad few days.
I am almost certain this issue has nothing to do with cashu, but rather with their lnaddr/LUD-16 backend provider. If they automatically mint tokens from all incoming lightning transactions, then alternatively that is the source of the problem.
Good question.
