Is anybody here familiar enough
No, the implementations are all larps borrowing open libraries they don't understand
in exchange for the payment of a lightning invoice
Ingest of that invoice requires other metadata
someone else could run a gateway connected to the same mint
The mint is the chokepoint, daisy chaining them just makes it worse
This is only possible for outgoing lightning
No shit, what else are the shitcoins good for?
Not sure what they are.
ECash relies on ignorance to proliferate
it's better than custodial lightning wallets
No it isn't, it is custodial completely, with worse overhead, and is an attack on Lightning's network effect as a payment spec
