of all the alternatives to #Visa & #Mastercard duopoly, the one that I think has the most promise - even if it's a slow and ardenous work - is GNU Taler. especially since they released first major release few months ago
problem with those alternatives is almost all of them require usage of smartphones as wallets - which means, similarly to any digital IDs, an exclusion of groups of people who either don't use smartphones, or lack tech education

Can anyone involved with GNU #Taler answer this?

SocialHub · Decentralize the Music Industry (and make it crumble)Hey Strypey, Thank you. This is very helpful. Pulling funds directly from a bank account should lower costs significantly. We have this in the US, but use it less because there are more fraud protections on our credit cards than our bank account numbers. I’m still curious about the technical overhead (and liability) that’s placed on website admins to be “a bank” that holds currency on behalf of our users. This seems like the big hurdle I’ll need to overcome before jumping on board.
For #Taler we should definitely ping @ps who is involved with @NGI_Taler

GNU #Taler v1.0 released

Approaches like this should be the default anywhere. Not greedy multinationals exploiting your #privacy as well.

#Taler, sistema di pagamento basato su #softwarelibero e che protegge la privacy degli acquirenti è in sperimentazione in Svizzera.

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.
