Egge (npub1mhc…c226) described an elegant solution to this: with cashu payment requests, the merchant itself specifies which mint the merchant is willing to accept.
At that point the wallet can do a swap between mints.
This actually makes accepting these things viable imo. If the merchant has a trust relation with a specific mint, and the ecash wallet has the ability to auto-swap, then it actually starts to make sense.

quoting note1y8r…92ajWhen considering accepting cashu for my anonymous ai proxy i ran into this dilemma. Can cashu people please explain this to me. Is providing this option mainly a convenience for the users who prefer using evash?
Can’t their cashu wallet just do lightning without doing this dance to begin with? I am continually baffled at what the point of ecash is when it appears to be just a clunky and redundant interface on top of lightning.
