Thank you for sharing.
I'm still studying the subject, but i would like to share some considerations i have not see mentioned yet:
There is no incentive to run a cashu mint node to provide service for others. This happens to when you decide to run a #Bitcoin node, as the incentive is for support the network and have a trusted source of information. With the #LightningNetwork you can operate it as a payment router and get fee from it.
However, the easy onboarding capability of cashu allow cashu node operator to become trusted party for others.
In a family, maybe you are the "tech guy" who can use #Bitcoin and #Lightning easily, but what about your parents, brothers, uncle...can they?
Probably yes with the right training, but this require times. What of you want give money to your son or daughter, but they are too young to understand layer one and two?
With cashu, i can say "you can trust it as long you trust me", be the beacon for friends and relative.
The same concept can be used for small community.
