Other than Poland, Portugal is the only economy in the EU under considerable growth for the last 5-10 years and soon to be a net contributor while Germany is moving towards net benefactor territory.
Portugal's case is actually an argument for the EU and why it is necessary.
You might be confusing EU with Euro area.
The Euro was an exploit of the southern countries from 2002 - 2012 as can be seen by the initial currency conversion rates and credit spreads practiced during the 2009-2012 crisis.
Now it is a tool for sovereignty and the EU is a tool for keeping sound regulation over some naturally more loose (corrupt?) cultures.

Monero's 18-block reorg in September wasn’t just possible, it happened. And it proves that privacy without robust settlement finality is fragile.

They actually aren't if your argument is scale. There are 20000 active nostr users, likely less than 1000 of which are children and quite likely not more than 2 of those children live in Mississippi. So any Nostr client is in the clear.

- reply

Are we relying on the fact that the terminal as a client won't become mainstream? Why are some exceptions to the law acceptable but others not? Are all terminals now obliged to verifying age?

The point is that nostr still works for users in that jurisdiction even if the relays or clientes there are temporarily down. Users in Mississippi can still use clients and relays not hosted in Mississipi.

For Phoenix, it actually manages liquidity for you, it keeps one single channel with ACINQ and charges you a fee every time you need to increase capacity/liquidity on the channel

You can set up a LNbits Hub and open a wallet for him? (But you'll need to manage channels and liquidity)
If he wants a fully self-custodial solution in LN he needs to manage channels and liquidity, there's no other way.

Bob mints token A, copies it and redeems it with the mint. Bob uses the copy of token A to buy apples from Alice. Alice sends apples over as she can see she received a valid token (minted from the same mint).
Alice goes to redeem the token copy and gets a "token already redeemed" from the mint.
Maybe it's not exactly double-spending, but it permits some sort of fraud?
Otherwise, if you assume the tokens are redeemed (for BTC LN) automatically with the mint on every transaction, how is it better/more private than BTC LN alone?
Genuine question, I'm just a beginner trying to understand Cashu on top of LN
