Can an agent pay Athenut (search paid with Cashu) with Cashu?
YESFrontend README says each search spends one Cashu token sent in an X-Cashu header. Probe: athenut.com returns 200 (a WASM app, no payment challenge visible); backend URL not given in the page, so no 402 probe (UNVERIFIED live behaviour).
Proof
“Each search spends one token, sent to the backend in an X-Cashu header”
