Help me see why this Cant/wont happen with #cashu.
Say I am a merchant that wants to allow both cashu and lightning payments. I am happy to use a third party mint I “trust” for this example.
I also want to enable lightning payments but running a lightning node is a pain.
Cant I just give customers a minting invoice and let them pay it for me with lightning, effectively using the cashu mints lightning node to provide lightning payments for my shop?
