Cashu vs Monerujo

Head-to-head privacy comparison: KYC friction, trust score, jurisdiction, fees, audits, supported regions, and network support. Higher trust score: Monerujo.

Cashu

Zero KYC · Trust 69/99

Chaumian e-cash protocol on Bitcoin Lightning. The mint cannot link sends to receives — genuine transactional unlinkability. CAUTION: each mint is a custodian. If the mint disappears, tokens are worthless. Best for small amounts on trusted mints.
