Thank you, but my point is: why is cashu considered "bitcoin" when it has all properties of a shitcoin? It is not bitcoin, you need to swap into it - like with every other shitcoin, it is not linked to any BTC, it is non custodial (which is completely against any bitcoin ethos), you have the mint rug risk etc.

Monero and every other shitcoin is also denominated in BTC, when you look at the Shitcoin/BTC chart.

For me it is just unfathomable that custodial long strings of text are considered "on a bitcoin standard" - it is like writing "i owe you 1000 sats" on a piece of paper and calling that a bitcoin scaling solution ;)
