If I remember correctly, in the early days this seemed to be the use case everyone envisioned. I guess it changed at some point?

That is what I'm talking about. Use it and  trow away. But this is just banking on steroids. Our own version of rug pulls.

Yes. Either small known-party mints or conversely short time-duration mints.

I think these "ad-hoc" mint setups could be really good (ie. my 3-day festival idea I've posted about in other threads). So in this case the threat to frac-reserve would be limited by your time exposure to the mint itself. (add an auto expiry function added to Cashu protocol?....hmmmmm....)

Now I see your concern from the other day. I didn't realize this was even an issue

Is There A Way To Prove Mints Aren't Inflating Supply?

Until this is resolved it seems to me that all large organizations running mints should be avoided, similar to our mantra of "get your coins off exchanges." That's why I see the use case as small family and friends mints right now.
