This is retarded for a number of reasons:
  • If you're using Nostr for ECash you can use it for Lightning directly instead of LNURL
  • With ECash you're not actually transacting
  • When you go to actually redeem that ECash you're still incurring lightning routing fees and hops
  • Custodial providers have the same insights regardless of whether you use ECash or SQL- there's no privacy benefit to Bitcoin, quite the opposite as large mints create surveillance chokepoints on the network
