# Introducing Cashu Cards
**Greeting Cards Deaigned To Send Bitcoin**

I began using/testing Cashu over 105,120 blocks ago when @NVK said ["Cashu is very interesting."](https://primal.net/e/note1xjly4d8a8w0dkqzvzj0t8kf8fnzqpa5w0zy2t2my7243zeut0gxszt9hch).

The first time I swapped sweet cipher-text to sats, it was too new new and novel to digest.  Someone sent me cashu over nostr, straight to my npub. I copy pasta-ed it into my minibits wallet and recieved 10 sats. In retrospect, I would compare it to gold backed paper currency. Over a century ago, paper USD was a coupon for gold, "redeemable in gold on demand at the United States Treasury, or in gold for lawful money at any federal reserve bank.
