#Taler consente pagamenti attraverso circuiti alternativi e un sistema “open” e trasparente. Anonimato per gli acquirenti, controllo degli incassi e tassazione puntuale per i venditori.

Ne parlò anche #RichardStallman 3 settimane fa al #PoliMi. #Taler, come funziona il sistema di pagamento digitale incentrato sulla #privacy | Wired Italia wired.it/article/taler-pagamen

People who know me know that I dabbled in cryptocurrency and gaming.
And it's just the WORST ecosystem ever.

So I'm looking at GNU #Taler and think: yeah, that's about right.

Questions:
How to find a real exchange? The project states it wants to be user friendly, yet at least Metamask has pre-configured, working swaps to get the actual coin. (I know taler isn't a currency.)

Do buyers need to jump through KYC hoops at the exchange?

How do merchants avoid having to KYC buyers?

@Taler perhaps?

Mich würde mal interessieren ob man bei Wero auch Person-to-Person machen kann, wenn man kein #Smartphone hat.

Ich habe zwar kein "Google / Apple Smartphone", aber ich habe ein Computer und auch Internet (hört sich komisch an, ist aber so).

Alternativ gerne auch mit Taler. Ich glaube Taler ist aber noch nicht so weit?!

In the foreground, a person stands holding a piece of paper, wearing a teal t-shirt and glasses, with a microphone clipped to their shirt. They appear to be speaking or presenting. A camera on a tripod is positioned in front of them, suggesting a recording or live broadcast is taking place. The person is wearing a face mask.

@Taler

Hey, I didn't find a detail in the docs/ papers/ faq

The math for how payments and coins are anonymous *after* withdrawal seem ok, at least it seems plausible to me.

But how do I know and can I trust that the bank didn't mark my digital coins?

The system seems to be designed to allow that anonymity could be possible, but I have no guarantee that it actually is?

#Taler, sistema di pagamento basato su #softwarelibero e che protegge la privacy degli acquirenti è in sperimentazione in Svizzera.
taler.net/it/index.html

We are building an anonymous, taxable payment system using modern cryptography. Customers will use traditional money transfers to send money to a digital Exchange and in return receive (anonymized) digital cash. Customers can use this digital cash to anonymously pay Merchants. Merchants can redeem the digital cash for traditional money at the digital Exchange. As Merchants are not anonymous, they can be taxed, enabling income or sales taxes to be withheld by the state while providing anonymity for Customers.

Vale la pena provarlo.

@rufposten @halbwach @T1M_Or Es braucht dringend ein Micropaymentsystem wie #Taler @Taler ich fürchte nur dass das nichts wird so lange es da keinen politischen Willen gibt.

Elektronický platební systém GNU Taler, který funguje jako svobodný software a respektuje soukromí zákazníka, byl ve Švýcarsku čerstvě uveden do provozu. Teď už jen doufat, že se to u prodejců dobře ujme, a že zbytek Evropy na sebe nenechá dlouho čekat. :gutkato:
