calle 👁️⚡👁️ (npub12rv…85vg) I have a few Cashu questions I need to understand before I really grasp it.

1- The mint knows the amount but how do they not know my balance? Is it because of the nature of the secrets?

2- Can you explain how sending e-cash offline works? ELI5

3- On a practical level, how is the e-cash on my hard drive destroyed? Is it just deleted when the mint sees it for the first time?

4- Does the mint to who they are giving the e-cash to? I understand once you send the secret with the lightning payment hash, the mint signs the blinding factor and doesn’t see the secret inside, but how does it stay blind to who is requesting the mint?

I’m fascinated by ecash and want to learn as much as I can. I’m ready to consume the most amount of resources u can get my hands on.
