he's done like a dozen of them and each time makes the same arguments even when they've been refuted or he's conceded the points previously to other people and is banking that the audience isn't aware. would be helpful to slim shady it and just address each argument he's previously made beforehand in like a written blog post, and ask if there's any new or different arguments he'd like to make for this debate and stick to those.
e.g. in at least 3 debates he's done he makes the argument that Bitcoin isn't scarce because it can be forked. In each debate his opponent clearly demonstrates why he's wrong and he drops it. but then he comes back in the next debate and makes the same argument, knowing he's wrong but hoping it won't get addressed.

@npub1nc0…z5pa's been working on and off on a better indexDB transaction abstraction that'll make doing ecash TXs from a PWA or webapp much more reliable, will also work for cashu since it's just generic KV! https://github.com/elsirion/webkv/blob/master/src/lib.rs
The default indexdb behavior is to commit the transaction as is whenever the event loop hits a network request, so for ecash transactions that might be hitting multiple mints it's probably causing the same issues we used to see in the Fedi PWA. webkv makes indexdb transactions operate the way everyone assumes they should work haha https://m.primal.net/KFve.png

tracking, question is whether I should extend the nip-87 PR from Ben or whether there's already something I'm not tracking for like "service provider" where you classify the service. know there's data vending machines but think there's also already something for like marketplaces and stuff

2024-08-08 18:01:12 UTC

I want to have the lightning gateway announce itself for out of mint discovery over nostr, what's the best way to do that? Currently the gateway has to register with whatever mint its servicing and clients learn of it through the mint. Is there a service provider announcement nip separate from DVMs? or probably a different kind for like mint service provider announcement as a tweak to the NIP-87 PR? https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/1110/files
Plan is to run a cashu mint alongside the fedimint lightning gateway against the same lightning, then eventually have the gateway just be generic to support routing for both cashu mints and fedimints. Thinking that direct announcement will work better as a base for third party reviews to reference instead of just the third party reviews/attestations?

2024-08-08 00:06:21 UTC

Trickiest piece that I don't like is that you can send/receive for ecash, lightning, or onchain so it's like a double selector and I can't figure out a way to make it feel more intuitive. If anyone has any ideas lmk. Will pull out the extra modal header and just have the note be on the bottom button, middle header repeating the selector feels redundant

2024-08-08 00:04:18 UTC

Working on a new UI for the Fedimint Lightning Gateway. It's a little complicated because they have 3 pools of funds they have to manage.
1. Ecash: the ecash they have across their different mints. I've currently got this showing as a single total with a clickthrough drilldown into the amount of ecash in each federation, but I think there's probably a better way to show this.
2. Lightning: Standard lightning channels, showing aggregate inbound and outbound with a drilldown for individual channels.
3. Onchain: onchain used in conjunction with the lightning and ecash liquidity management, should normally stay pretty small and just fill up when pegging out of a federation or for opening/closing lightning channels.
Also have an ongoing project of running a cashu mint on top of it and ideally show it in the same UI for management. but not sure the best way to do it, probably just a top level tab over from "Gateway" to "Mint". Maximize the gateway routing fees with normal lightning routing, fedimint routing, and optionally running a cashu mint ontop all in the same interface

If you keep it in its current structure this will also work generically with fedimint ecash as well.
I think the amount being repeated isn't necessary, the amount is contained in the token because the amounts are encoded into the proofs ( or notes for fedimint)

Neither does fedimint's ecash. The client associates the notes it holds with a federationId and can change that association the same way you do with the mintUrl.
It's more complex for the fedimint guardians to agree on an update to the config, creating the new federationId, but in principal it's the same. the approach to that consensus update process just needs to get agreed on and implemented as part of the next release or potentially a hotfix.

2024-06-25 16:39:04 UTC

This is also possible in principle with the fedimint client, there's more complexity for doing the upgrade because the client associates its notes to the federation id which contains the original endpoints and the guardians have to first agree on the new config then the client has to acknowledge the new config.
99% of the complexity for fedimint here is the consensus not the ecash. But there's (potentially, still confirming implementation options) a short term fix for existing federations to allow a DNS rotation by a guardian and that being acknowledged and reflected in an updated client to reassociate its notes with the new config. Plus a longer term solution to remove the DNS dependency for new federations entirely.

no cashu has onchain available in v1, to do a multisig for the onchain you'd have to run a distributed consensus among the signers aka fedimint, then the ecash itself is single sig so it wouldnt be atomic with the multisig reserves the same way you can with single sig onchain/ln cashu.
