>Mint nodes produce mint proofs when issuing ecash, and melt proofs when redeeming (or “burning”) tokens.

>A dishonest mint could manipulate these records, falsifying proofs or secretly issuing unbacked ecash, thereby inflating liabilities without users realizing their tokens aren’t properly backed by BTC.

>Merkle Sum Sparse Merkle Trees (MSSMTs) offer a cryptographic way to record mint and melt events transparently. They let users verify inclusion of transactions and ensure the mint's liabilities are fully accounted for.

>The sum property aggregates token values (minted and burned), while the sparse structure keeps things efficient, even with few transactions

🚀 LNbits v1.0 – Final Testing Phase!

I think because its the final testing phase before 1.0 release.

Message from Ben Arch

>5 years and 8.5k commits later and we are almost out of beta!
As we enter this final phase, we’ve set up a community testing server at v1.lnbits.com, where you can try out extensions and explore the latest updates, and help us identify and squish last few bugs.
If you’d like to run your own test instance so you can access all the amazing admin features, use the dev branch and share any feedback. Spin up a fresh instance for this, don't use your current installs.
