宙斯錢包整合了Cashu，向數百萬新用戶開放了閃電網絡

總部位於美國的比特幣和閃電移動錢包宙斯最近宣布了Cashu的Alpha-Release整合。此舉標誌著Ecash的第一個整合

U.S.-based Bitcoin and Lightning mobile wallet Zeus recently announced an alpha-release integration of Cashu, marking the first integration of the promising ecash use case into a popular Bitcoin wallet.

總部位於美國的比特幣和閃電移動錢包宙斯最近宣布了Cashu的Alpha-Release集成，這標誌著有希望的Ecash用例首次整合到受歡迎的比特幣錢包中。

The move paves the way for broader adoption of Bitcoin in a format that boasts privacy and scalability—key properties of Chaumian ecash, a form of digital cash invented by David Chaum in the 90s—with the trade-off of being fundamentally centralized, requiring a significant amount of trust in the issuer. A sunny view of this technology is that it’s like good old-fashioned cash, but in the digital realm.

此舉為具有隱私和可擴展性的格式（Chaumian Ecash的鑰匙屬性）（90年代David Chaum發明的一種數字現金形式）鋪平了更廣泛地採用比特幣的方式，並以根本上集中的權衡取捨，需要對發行人進行大量信任。對這項技術的陽光透明的看法是，它就像是好的老式現金，但在數字領域中。

In a surprising move for Zeus, known as the go-to tool for advanced Lightning users seeking to connect to their home nodes, the integration of Cashu acknowledges a “last mile” challenge Lightning wallets face when delivering Bitcoin to the masses.

宙斯（Zeus）的一個令人驚訝的舉動，這是試圖連接其家庭節點的高級閃電用戶的首選工具，Cashu的集成承認，在將比特幣交付給大眾時，閃電錢包的“最後一英里”挑戰挑戰賽。

“We basically started off as the cypherpunk wallet, right? You got to set up your own Lightning node and connect to it with Zeus. The last two years, we put the node in the phone with one click, you can run it all in a standalone app without a remote node,” Evan Kaloudis, founder and CEO of Zeus, told Bitcoin Magazine.

“我們基本上是從Cypherpunk錢包開始的，對嗎？您必須設置自己的閃電節點並與宙斯連接。最近兩年，我們單擊一鍵將節點放入電話中，您可以在沒有遠程節點的獨立應用程序中運行它，” Evan Kaloudis，Evan Kaloudis，Evan Kaloudis，Zeous of Zeous of Zeus of Bitcoincoinagazine，Magazine。

“Cashu addresses uneconomical self-custody for small bitcoin amounts. On-chain, the dust limit is 546 satoshis, and Layer two systems like Lightning have costs for channel setup or unilateral exits that aren’t widely discussed.”

“ Cashu解決了針對小比特幣量的不經濟自我遵循。鏈上，防塵限制為546 satoshis，諸如Lightning之類的第二層系統的渠道設置或單方面出口的成本未廣泛討論。”

According to Kaloudis, this is a major point of friction in noncustodial Lightning wallets: the need for liquidity and channel management. While these esoteric aspects of the Lightning Network have been mostly abstracted since its invention in 2016, these fundamental trade-offs continue to manifest even in the most sophisticated and user-friendly wallets.

根據Kaloudis的說法，這是非監測閃電錢包中摩擦的主要點：對流動性和渠道管理的需求。儘管自2016年發明以來，這些閃電網絡的這些深奧的方面大部分都被抽像出來，但即使在最複雜和用戶友好的錢包中，這些基本的權衡仍在繼續表現出來。

In the case of both Phoenix and Zeus Wallet, two of the most popular noncustodial options in the market, users must pay up to 10,000 sats upfront to gain spending capacity. These fees are necessary to cover the on-chain fees spent to open a channel for the user against the wallet’s liquidity service provider, unlocking a noncustodial experience.

對於鳳凰城和宙斯錢包，市場上兩個最受歡迎的非監測選擇中的兩個，用戶必須預先支付多達10,000個坐著的時間才能獲得支出能力。這些費用是為了覆蓋用戶對錢包的流動性服務提供商打開渠道所花費的鍊子費用所需的，從而解開了非監測體驗。

The required up-front fee is difficult to explain and presents a painful onboarding experience for new users who are used to fiat apps, like Venmo or Cash App, crediting them with small amounts to join the network.

所需的預期費用很難解釋，並為習慣於菲亞特應用程序（例如Venmo或Cash App）的新用戶提供了痛苦的入職經驗，並以少量數量來加入網絡。

As a result of this difficulty starting out in the Bitcoin world, we’ve seen the rapid adoption of custodial Lightning wallets like Wallet of Satoshi (WOS), which leveraged the global, near-instant settlement power of Bitcoin.

由於這一困難從比特幣界開始，我們已經看到了迅速採用的持有雷擊錢包，例如Satoshi（WOS），它利用了比特幣的全球，近乎固有的定居點。

Major developments have been made over seven years after the Lightning Network’s inception, however, and Zeus Wallet is pushing the boundaries.

然而，在閃電網絡成立後的七年中，已經做出了重大發展，宙斯錢包正在推動界限。

“With Ecash, we make it so easy that anyone can set up a wallet and start participating in our ecosystem, which I really think is going to become more and more prevalent,” said Kaloudis.

Kaloudis說：“借助Ecash，我們變得如此容易，任何人都可以設置錢包並開始參與我們的生態系統，我認為這將變得越來越普遍。”

Today, at roughly $100,000 per bitcoin, 1,000 satoshis are equivalent to $1, transactions of these sizes are known as microtransactions — a popular example are Nostr social media tips known as zaps. But finding the right tool for this use case is not simple. Self custodied wallets like Phoenix charge transaction fees in the hundreds of satoshis, even with open channels, and on-chain fees often cost the same and are slower to settle.

如今，每比特幣大約100,000美元，1,000 satoshis等於$ 1，這些尺寸的交易被稱為微交易 - 一個流行的例子是NOSTR社交媒體技巧，稱為ZAPS。但是，為此用例找到正確的工具並不簡單。自我拘留的錢包，例如鳳凰城收費交易費用，即使有開放的渠道，也有數百個satoshis的費用，並且鏈上的費用通常相同，而且安裝較慢。

As a result, there’s an entire category of spending that is only served by cheaper alternatives such as custodial lightning wallets like WOS or Blink, but result in significant privacy tradeoffs, often requiring phone numbers from users and in some cases more advanced KYC and IP tracking. Cashu hopes to serve this market with lower privacy costs, the same ease of use, speed and competitive fees.

結果，只有更便宜的替代方案（例如WOS或眨眼）等較便宜的替代方案提供了整個類別的支出，但會導致大量的隱私權折衷，通常需要用戶的電話號碼，在某些情況下更高級的KYC和IP跟踪。 Cashu希望以較低的隱私成本，相同的使用，速度和競爭性費用為市場服務。

Digging deeper into the Cashu integration, Kaloudis explained that “For users this means being able to pick and switch between custodians in a single app. For developers this means being able to defer custodial responsibilities to third parties and not have to wire up a new integration when your current custodian halts operations.”

Kaloudis深入研究Cashu集成，解釋說：“對於用戶來說，這意味著能夠在單個應用程序中選擇和切換。對於開發人員而言，這意味著能夠將保管責任推遲到第三方，而不必在您當前的託管人停止操作時將新的整合匯合。”

Zaps are satoshi-denominated rewards delivered as “likes” or micro-tips for content in the Nostr social media ecosystem. A zap can be as small as one satoshi, the smallest amount of bitcoin that can be technically transferred, which today is less than a tenth of a penny.

在NOSTR社交媒體生態系統中，ZAPS是SATOSHI計數的獎勵，以“喜歡”或微調。 ZAP可以像一個Satoshi一樣小，這是最小的比特幣，可以在技術上轉移，而今天的比特幣不到一分錢的十分之一。

“But I think if we look at Nostr and you’re seeing how many people are zapping and how big a part of that ecosystem it is. It’s like, people are willing to do it,” said Kaloudis.

“但是我認為，如果我們看著NoStr，您會看到有多少人被打擊了，以及它是該生態系統的一部分。就像，人們願意這樣做，” Kaloudis說。

“Cashu, while custodial, lets users accumulate small amounts — say, via Nostr zaps — without needing 6,000 satoshis to open a Lightning channel. ZEUS

“ Cashu雖然保管，但可以讓用戶積累少量的數量 - 例如，通過NoStr Zaps - 無需6,000個Satoshis即可打開閃電頻道。
