When can I send my earnings from Mash to another wallet or exchange?

Immediately, upon receipt you can send your funds to another lightning wallet, or powered exchange. There are no delays.

What is a lightning address – such as dogco@getmash.cash?

We think lightning addresses are really cool. They enable any wallet that supports the open-source specification to send you money directly, and immediately (or receive money from you). They can even include a message so that you can reference what it is for. This takes advantage of the decentralized lightning network, and any organization can technically join the network. You can learn more about it, including other software that supports it at https://lightningaddress.com/.

Why is the value of my earnings in USD changing, while the sats are staying the same? I priced my items in USD.

All payments through the Mash system occur in Bitcoin (sats is a unit of measurement for Bitcoin). To keep things simple for your users we keep pricing in USD. Because the exchange rate between Bitcoin & USD changes, the amount of Sats that are being sent to you changes with each transaction. Also, because your balance is in Bitcoin, the USD value will fluctuate as well. You can always send your Bitcoin to another wallet, or to an exchange and convert it to a currency of your choice.
