Cashu is not centralized, but my Cashu mint is centralized.
yes. cashu mints are centralized.
You just suddenly hear that the mint is down.
this is why most cashu wallets allow you to melt between mints - that way you can 'distribute' risk as a holder. You are also only affected if you had tokens from that specific mint. cashu would still exist.
you can't spin Whirlpool back up without Samourai, as of right now.
