It needs nostr. I can think of a few things that I would like see in cashu wallets

- Mint discovery like the one Mutiny added for Fedimint
- The ability to rate and recommend mints to your followers
- The ability to DM your contacts, request, send cashu tokens in the same UI
- Connection to mints using nostr, ie, instead of connecting to a mint using its URL, you would connect to it using its npub or nprofile. That makes the mints much harder to shut down for governments, ISPs and also prevents you from exposing your IP to the mint, which can negate the privacy benefits of using it
- Backup mints (URLs or npubs) using relays and private notes

Of course these things are not guaranteed to make cashu an overnight success, but seem like good ideas
