NutHog 🐷💰

A Chrome extension that sniffs out valuable Cashu nuts hidden in emojis across the web.

Features

• Constantly sniffs through web page content for emojis that might contain hidden Cashu nuts
• Uses its special snout (decoder) to extract the valuable nuts from emoji encodings
• Processes Cashu nuts using the cashu-ts library
• Automatically collects found nuts and swaps them for fresh ones to prevent double-spending
• Oinks with joy (sends notifications) when nuts are found

Usage

1. After installing the extension, you'll see the NutHog icon in your Chrome toolbar
2. NutHog automatically sniffs all web pages you visit for emojis containing encoded Cashu nuts

How It Works

NutHog uses a special snout (MutationObserver) to continuously sniff through the DOM for text content. When it finds an emoji, it attempts to decode it using its specialized nut-detection algorithm.

If the decoded content smells like a Cashu nut (token), it's sent to the background script for processing using the cashu-ts library.
