Secure your wallet

Exercise caution when deciding which mints to trust.

The Cashu protocol empowers all individuals to setup and operate a mint without any permission. Mints may be established and dismantled regularly without prior notice. Scammers may exploit this opportunity to offer services with the sole intent of stealing users' funds. Please verify the reputation of a mint before interacting with it.

eNuts is in early development

Is it possible to delete a mint?

Yes, you can delete a mint, but it has to be empty. eNuts does not allow the deletion of a mint with a balance due to the strict security measures in place to protect your Nuts. See this issue for more information.

Why is the app called eNuts?

The community has embraced the term 'nuts' as a representation of Ecash tokens within the Cashu protocol. eNuts derives its name from 'ecash' and 'nuts', signifying its role as a Cashu wallet.

How can I add new contacts on eNuts?

You will need to have a Nostr public key to add contacts on eNuts. You can add your public key by scanning a QR code or by pasting it in the "Contacts" screen. Support for adding private contacts is planned for a future release.

How can I send Ecash to a contact on eNuts?

After you have added your Nostr public key, the simpliest way to send Ecash to your contacts is by selecting them from the "Contacts" screen. You can also press "Send" in the wallet dashboard and choose a contact as recipient before confirming the transaction.

Can eNuts receive Ecash sent to me via Nostr?

Indeed, eNuts can receive Ecash over Nostr. However, it's important to note that eNuts doesn't have access to the private key used in your Nostr clients, thus it cannot read or claim from your private DMs. It is only capable of claiming Ecash sent to your new public key, which is generated by eNuts upon its initial startup.

Can I have multiple Nostr keys on eNuts?

No, eNuts only supports a single Nostr public key at a time. You can change or delete it in the "Contacts" screen by pressing on your profile picture and then "update" or "delete".

Is it possible to send funds to any Nostr public key?

Yes, you can search for any Nostr public key or username and send funds to it by pressing on the contact.

Can I search my contact list on eNuts?

No, the search feature works only for global Nostr users but your contacts are part of the global users. Searching your specific contact list is currently not possible due to how Nostr profiles are loaded.

Is eNuts considered trustless?

eNuts is not trustless. The mints are the custodians of your funds. Without the mint, you cannot access or restore your funds.

I've lost my phone; is it possible to recover my funds?

Yes, you can recover your funds by using your seed phrase. It's important to keep your seed phrase safe and secure. However, if you have multiple mints, you will need to recover each mint separately. 

Note: For a successful recovery, the corresponding mint has to be operational!

Can I restore my Android wallet on an iOS device, or vice versa?

Indeed, you can restore your wallet on a different operating system, provided that the wallet is compatible with it.

Receiving or sending payments keeps failing; what can I do to troubleshoot?

  • Ensure that your internet connection is stable.
  • Verify that the mint is operational. You can do this by copying the mint's URL, pasting it in your browser and adding '/keys' at the end of the URL. If the page displays a list of keys, the mint is operational.
  • Ensure that your wallet is up to date.
  • Contact the mint operator for assistance.
  • For further assistance, refer to our Support page.

Token already spent. What steps should I take?

If a payment fails during a network request, eNuts doesn't delete any tokens from your balance. In some rare cases, the wallet may add the token back to your balance even if the payment was successful, which can lead to a 'token already spent' error.

To rectify this, navigate to 'Options' > 'Mint management' > select a mint, then scroll to the danger zone and tap 'Check proofs'.

Where should I report a bug?
