I have seen 0 articles relating GNU Taler with the digital Euro, and I am very worried this incredible project will end nowhere. Because the digital Euro is definitely coming and that would be the moment to put Taler to work.
As a french citizen, i reeeeeaaaaaally hope the digital euro will be good, and truly as flexible as cash
Are you a utopist or brainwashed by Lagarde ?
I just think the eu has been pretty based lately so i hope it’ll continue
Did you heard and read what the banksters said about the digital euro named cash+ ? Did you see how it this authoritarian technology have been abused by the countries that have already implemented it ?
CBDC have nothing to do with cash, it will be closed and opaque, surveilled and controlled, frozable and perishable. Of course it won’t be on day one, they ususally wait to be necessary in people lives to change stuff just like private companies does. Don’t be fool by the banksters, especially the ones from central banks and cantillonaires… They wan’t to remove cash to have better control over our money.
It won’t be great if non-libre payment systems are still the rule.
Taler has a completely different application. Digital euro won’t use it
Could you expand?
AFAIK Taler is for payments, the Digital Euro is for storing value.
Yes, but also, your Taler wallet stores value too, I guess.
In any case, I wonder why Taler has not made it a point that they are (or could) be a payment system for the digital euro.
If it’s not going to be used for that, it could still be used as a good paypal alternative.
